Homework Questions?

Think-Pair-Share 1)If a tree falls in the woods and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound? 2)In space, can anyone hear you scream?
4
Sound Chapter 15 (OpenStax Chapter 17)
5
Sound and Hearing Sound is a disturbance of matter that is transmitted outward from its source. Sound is a wave. Hearing is the perception of sound, just as vision is the perception of light.
6
Vibrating String As a string vibrates, a small portion of its energy goes into compressing and expanding the surrounding air. These compressions (high pressure regions) and rarefactions (low pressure regions) move out as longitudinal waves having the same frequency as the string.
7
Sound Waves Longitudinal in air and most other fluids. In solids, can be both transverse and longitudinal. Amplitude of sound waves decrease with distance from its source. Spread out over larger and larger areas. Absorbed by objects (including eardrums). Energy lost as heat. Wavelength, frequency, amplitude, and speed are important, as they are for all waves.
8
Speed of Sound, Frequency, and Wavelength OpenStax Section 17.2
9
Frequency Same as for other waves. Perception of frequency is called pitch. Humans generally cannot hear below 20 Hz or above 15-25 kHz (depending on age) Younger people can hear higher frequencies than older people High frequency noise is sometimes used to deter teenager loitering
10
Still true
11
You-Try #2 What frequency sound has a 0.10 m wavelength when the speed of sound is 340 m/s?
12
Wavelength Distance between adjacent identical parts.
13
Speed of Sound Depends on temperature. Higher temperature faster particle motion faster sound waves Nearly independent on frequency or wavelength Sample speeds, in m/s Gases at 0°CLiquids at 20°CSolids (longitudinal) Air331Ethanol1160Polyethalene920 CO 2 259Mercury1450Marble3810 Oxygen316Fresh water1480Glass (Pyrex)5640 Helium965Sea water1540Lead1960 Hydrogen1290Human tissue1540Steel5960

Speed of Sound Table 15-1, Page 405 (Need for homework) (Do not need to memorize – a table will be provided on your test)
16
Warm-Up: March 1, 2016 A sonar echo returns to a submarine 1.20 s after being emitted. What is the distance to the object creating the echo? Assume the submarine is stationary in the ocean.
17
Reminder Units Quiz next class All or nothing
18
Changing Medium The medium is the matter through which a sound wave travels. When a sound wave passes from one medium to another, frequency and period stay constant. Wave speed is determined by the medium (and temperature). Wavelength is determined by
19
Think-Pair-Share You observe two musical instruments that you cannot identify. One plays high-pitch sounds and the other plays low-pitch sounds. How could you determine which is which without hearing either of them play? Solution: Compare their sizes. High-pitch instruments are generally smaller than low-pitch instruments because they generate a smaller wavelength.
20
You-Try #10 A physicist at a fireworks display times the lag between seeing an explosion and hearing the sound, and finds it to be 0.400 s. His thermometer shows an air temperature of 20.0°C. Estimate the distance between the physicist and the explosion.
22
Sound Intensity and Sound Level OpenStax Section 17.3

26
You-Try 17.3 Show that if one sound is twice as intense as another, it has a sound level about 3 dB higher.
27
Doppler Effect and Sonic Booms OpenStax Section 17.4
28
Doppler Effect The Doppler Effect is an alteration of the observed frequency of a sound due to motion of either the source or the observer. The change in frequency due to relative motion is called a Doppler shift. Named after Austrian Christian Johann Doppler (1803-1853)

Moving Source, Stationary Observer

Stationary Source, Moving Observer
32
Doppler Effect Occurs for all waves, including sound, light, and water waves. Used to determine relative velocities of galaxies. (See Page 408 of your textbook for special cases of the equation.)

Hz horn is moving at 35.0 m/s in still air when the speed of sound is 340. m/s. a)What frequencies are observed by a stationary person at the side of the tracks as the train approaches and after it passes? b)What frequency is observed by the train’s engineer traveling on the train?

Sonic Booms
40
Sonic Boom
41
Object traveling faster than speed of sound. No sound is received by the observer until after the object passes. Sound waves from approaching source are superimposed with sound waves from the receding object. Constructive interference creates a cone-shaped shock wave, called a sonic boom.

45
Bow Wakes A bow wake is created when the wave source moves faster than the wave propagation speed. A sonic boom is an example of a bow wake.
46
Think-Pair-Share What are some applications of the Doppler Effect?
47
Applications of Doppler Shift Ultrasound – measure blood velocity Police radar – measure car velocities Meteorology – track storm clouds Astronomy – relative speeds of galaxies

Units Quiz! Clear everything off of your desk except writing utensils and erasers. 8 minute time limit If you appear to be talking, looking at anyone else’s quiz, allowing another student to look at your quiz, or using any unauthorized aide, you will receive a zero. If any electronic device is seen or heard, it goes to the office and you will receive a zero.
51
The Physics of Music Section 15.2
52
Sound Interference and Resonance: Standing Waves in Air Columns OpenStax Section 17.5
53
Sound Interference All waves exhibit constructive and destructive interference. Demonstrating interference proves something is a wave. Noise-cancelling technology uses destructive interference to reduce noise levels by 30 dB or more. Sound resonance, such as in musical instruments, is due to interference.
54
Beats
55
You-Try 40 What beat frequencies result if a piano hammer hits three strings that emit frequencies of 127.8, 128.1, and 128.3 Hz?
56
Resonance in Tubes Resonant frequencies interfere constructively. Other frequencies interfere destructively and are absent. Half-open tube (open at one end, closed at the other) Sound wave enters the open end of the tube. Sound wave travels down the tube. Sound wave reflects off the closed end. Sound wave return to the open end. If the wavelength of the sound wave and the length of the tube are correct, the exiting sound wave constructively interferes with the incoming sound wave, and a standing wave is created. An antinode (maximum displacement) at the open end A node (no displacement) at the closed end
57
Figure 17.23 Resonance of air in a tube closed at one end, caused by a tuning fork. A disturbance moves down the tube.
58
Figure 17.24 Resonance of air in a tube closed at one end, caused by a tuning fork. The disturbance reflects from the closed end of the tube.
59
Figure 17.25 Resonance of air in a tube closed at one end, caused by a tuning fork. If the length of the tube L is just right, the disturbance gets back to the tuning fork half a cycle later and interferes constructively with the continuing sound from the tuning fork. This interference forms a standing wave, and the air column resonates.
60
Figure 17.26 Resonance of air in a tube closed at one end, caused by a tuning fork. A graph of air displacement along the length of the tube shows none at the closed end, where the motion is constrained, and a maximum at the open end. This standing wave has one-fourth of its wavelength in the tube, so that λ = 4L.
61
Fundamental Frequency
62
Overtones Instead of one-fourth of a wavelength fitting inside the tube, 3/4 or 5/4 or 7/4, etc. could fit inside the tube. These shorter wavelengths create higher frequency standing waves called overtones.
63
Harmonics Harmonics include the fundamental frequency and all overtones. The first harmonic is the fundamental frequency The second harmonic is the first overtone The third harmonic is the second overtone
64
Harmonics The fundamental and overtones can be present in a variety of combinations. This is why middle C sounds different on different instruments. The fundamental frequency is the same, but the overtones and their mix of intensities are different.
67

73
You-Try 44 What are the first three overtones of a bassoon that has a fundamental frequency of 90.0 Hz? It is open at both ends. (The overtones of a real bassoon are more complex than this, because of its double reed.)
