  1. Investigation 3, Part 2 Sounds through Solids

  2. Materials • Student sheet no. 16 • Student sheet no. 17 • Scissors • Small nail • Wood dowels • Tissue • Tape • Plastic cups • Paper clips • String 2m.

  3. Telecup for the teacher • Punch hole in bottom of 2 cups. • Thread string through plastic cups. • Tie end of string to paper clip.

  4. Dowel for teacher • Tape facial tissue to one end of a dowel.

  5. Introduction • Can sound travel through solid materials like wood, steel, plastic, and glass? • To hear sound, it must travel from its vibrating source to our ears through a medium. • Today, you will test solid materials to see if sound can travel through solids.

  6. Demonstration of Telecup • Carefully hold the cups. • Do not touch the bottom of the cup or the string. • Pull string tight, but not so tight that it breaks or comes out of the hole.

  7. Student Sheets • Read directions • Do investigation. • Record observations. • Do “Go Further.”

  8. Discussion • Can you hear sound through the string? • Can you hear sound through the wood? • How does the sound get to your ear? • Is sound hear through solids different from sound heard through air?

  9. Review • Can sound travel through solids? • How does the sound get from the water, through the stethoscope, and to your ear? • The sound vibrations travel through the water, to the solid stethoscope diaphragm, and through the air in the stethoscope tubes to the ear. • What must sound have to be heard? • Sound must have a source, a receiver, and a solid, liquid, or gas medium to travel through.

  10. Imagine you have 2 rocks in your hands. • You hit them together in the air. • Then, you put one rock on your desk, put your ear to the desk, and hit the rock with the other rock. • Finally, you jump into a pool, go to the bottom with the 2 rocks, and hit them together. • How do you think the sounds of the rocks would compare? • The sounds would seem loud traveling through the desk and the water and seem softer traveling through the air.
