Calculate the speed of 25 cm ripples passing through water at 120 waves/s
Determine the l, f, & T of the 49th overtone of a 4.0 m organ pipe when vsound = 350.0 m/s
Chapter 15 Sound
Sound Waves Longitudinal waves caused by pressure change producing compressions & rarefactions of particles in the medium
Sound Waves Any vibrations produce regular oscillations pressure as the vibrating substance pushes air molecules back & forth
Sound Waves The oscillating air molecule collide with others transmitting the pressure variations away from the source
Sound Waves Air resistance will cause the amplitude of the wave to diminish as it moves away from the source
Speed of Sound vsound in air = 331.5 m/s + (0.60 m/soC)(T)
Speed of Sound vsound ~ 343 m/s At room temp.
Speed of Sound at 25oC vin air = 343 m/s vfresh water = 1493 m/s vsea water = 1533 m/s vin steel = 5130 m/s
The human ear can detect sound between 20 Hz & 16 kHz. Calculate the wavelength of each:
Calculate the l in mm of notes with frequencies of: 2.0 kHz & 10.0 kHz vsound = 342 m/s
Loudness • How loud sound is, is proportional to the amplitude of its waves
Decibels (dB) • Unit for measuring the loudness of a sound wave
Decibels • Measured in log units • 50 dB is 10 x greater than 40 dB
Pitch • Pitch is proportional to the frequency or inversely proportioned to the wavelength
Doppler Effect • Changes in observed pitch due to relative motion between the source & the observer of the sound wave
Doppler Effect • The pitch of approaching objects has higher frequencies or shorter wavelengths
Doppler Effect • The pitch of objects moving apart has lower frequencies or longer wavelengths
Almost all musical instruments are some form of an open tube or strings attached at two ends
In brass instruments, the lip vibrates against the mouthpiece causing the instrument to vibrate
In reed instruments, air moving over the reed causes it to vibrate causing the instrument to vibrate
In pipe instruments, air moving over the opening causes air to vibrate causing the instrument to vibrate
In stringed instruments, plucking the string causes it to vibrate causing the instrument to vibrate
In musical instruments, the sound is dependent upon resonance in air columns
In each instrument, the longest wavelength produced is twice the length of string or air column
Resonance • When multiple objects vibrate at the same frequency or wavelength
Resonance • Resonance increases amplitude or loudness as multiple sources reinforce the waves
Resonance • The length & width of the air column determine the pitch (frequency or wavelength)
Resonance • In instruments sound resonates at a fundamental pitch and many overtones
Calculate the wavelengths for each of the following sound frequencies at 30.83oC:4.0 MHz & 10.0 MHz
Fundamental • The lowest tone or frequency that can be generated by an instrument
Overtones • Sound waves of higher frequency or pitch than the fundamental
Pipe Resonance • Open Pipe: open at both ends • Closed Pipe: Closed at one end
Pipe: Open End • High Pressure-antinode • Zero Displacement-node
Pipe: Closed End • Pressure node • Displacement antinode
Closed Pipe Resonator • A pipe that is closed at one end
Open Pipe Resonator • A pipe that is open at both ends
Wavelengths Generated by a Closed Pipe Resonator • = 4L/(2n +1) f = v(2n+1)/4L
Wavelengths Generated by a Closed Pipe Resonator n = 0 for the fundamental
Wavelengths Generated by a Closed Pipe Resonator n = positive integers for overtones
Typical Wavelengths Generated by CP • 0 = 4L • 1 = 4L/3 • 2 = 4L/5
Wavelengths Generated by an Open Pipe Resonator • = 2L/(n+1) f = (n+1)v/2L
Wavelengths Generated by an Open Pipe Resonator n = 0 for the fundamental
Wavelengths Generated by an Open Pipe Resonator n = positive integers for overtones
Typical Wavelengths Generated by OP • 0 = 2L • 1 = 2L/2 • 2 = 2L/3
