1 main idea about sound waves. 2 words to describe sound. 3 everyday uses of sound. • Sound • vibrations • mechanical • longitudinal pitch amplitude • how high or low a sound is • depends onfrequency • measured in hertz • how loud or soft a sound is • the amount of energy in a wave • measured in decibels ultrasound sonar • look inside our bodies(see babies!!!) • break up kidney stones without surgery • clean medical equipment echolocation • fish finders • locate objects underwater (Titanic) • bats and dolphins use it to tell direction and find food
