Presentation Transcript

  1. The distance from the middle of one compression to the middle of the next

  2. Wavelength

  3. The sound of a large bell is (lower/higher) than the sound of a small bell

  4. LOWER • Bigger bell vibrates slower = lower pitch

  5. place where the air molecules are pressed together

  6. compression

  7. Percussion instruments played by ______________

  8. HITTING

  9. between the compressions, the molecules spread apart

  10. Rarefaction/expansion

  11. To move rapidly back and forth

  12. vibrate

  13. The pitch will be lower if the tension of the string (increases/decreases)

  14. DECREASE • If the string is looser(decrease in tension), it will vibrate slower = lower pitch

  15. how high or low sound,

  16. pitch

  17. A wave that carries sound energy

  18. Longitudinal Wave

  19. A material through which a wave travels

  20. medium

  21. Long strings have (higher/lower) pitch than short ones

  22. LOWER • Longer strings vibrate slower = lower pitch

  23. Unit of measure for loudness of sound

  24. DECIBELS

  25. The distance that a vibrating object moves as it vibrates

  26. amplitude

  27. the number of vibrations(sound waves) per second

  28. Wave Frequency

  29. form of energy produced by a vibrating object

  30. sound

  31. low pitch means _______frequency

  32. low

  33. the height of the sound wave

  34. amplitude

  35. Sound energy travels (inward or outward) from a vibrating object

  36. outward

  37. Sound travels faster through ________ (solid, liquid, or gas)

  38. solid

  39. Height or distance of a sound wave

  40. amplitude

  41. Opposite of compression

  42. rarefaction

  43. A measurement of the loudness of sound

  44. DECIBEL

  45. The higher the amplitude, the ________ the sound

  46. louder

  47. sound waves are ________ waves

  48. longitudinal

  49. How high or low a sound is

  50. pitch
