Sound Purpose Visualize the wavelike nature of sound by using a sound-to-voltage transducer (otherwise known as a microphone….). Measure the speed of sound in a variety of ways.
Sound Activity I: The Nature of Sound Sound Microphone (converts sound to electric voltage) Pasco 750 Interface Computer/Capstone : Used as an oscilloscope
Sound Using Capstone for Sound Lab Click/Read through the first 4 tabs for some useful instructions
Sound T (period)
Sound Activity IV: Measuring the Speed of Sound with an Echo Table Stand Microphone 1 (plugged into port A !!) Clap ! d Hollow cardboard tube
Sound First passage Echo Identify a repeated pattern…you may need several attempts t
Sound Activity 5: Standing Waves and the Speed of Sound tuning fork Procedure: Adjust pipe location until the sound from the tuning fork is amplified. Measure L as shown on the left. Think about the relationship between the wavelength and the length L. Determine wavelength Calculate the speed of sound using L Note: f is written on the tuning fork.
