E N D
Which part of the scientific process does NOT have to be accurate to be useful? A. hypothesis B. procedure C. analysis D. safe practices
2. Which of the following is NOT an example of a hypothesis that can be tested with an experiment? Nonliving things do not grow and develop. B. Lipids do not mix with water. C. Plant cells contain DNA. D. Dogs are better than cats.
3. An experiment yields the three results below, and each result differs from what the hypothesis predicted. Which result(s) is (are) still useful? A solvent doesn’t break down a substance, making it impossible to determine what elements comprise it. A mouse fed a tiny amount of food did not get sick. The amount of a substance revealed by an experiment is double that which was predicted. all of the above
4. An environmental scientist suspects that acid precipitation is beginning to affect certain lakes in Texas. What is the best way to test this hypothesis? Why?
5. A newspaper headline says, “Detective Has Theory on How Computers Were Stolen from Warehouse.” Which of the following words—hypothesis, law, fact, or experiment—most accurately reflects the use of the term THEORY in this newspaper headline?
Let’s see what we learned about wave interactions yesterday!
Science Standard S8P5: Students will explore the wave nature of sound and electromagnetic radiation.
Science Standard Identifythe characteristics of electromagnetic and mechanical waves. Describehow the behavior of waves is affected by medium (such as air, water, solids). Relate the properties of sound to everyday experiences. Diagramthe parts of the wave and explain how the parts are affected by changes in amplitude and pitch.
Essential Question What happens when a wave runs into a different medium or runs into another wave?
What happens when a waves encounters a boundary (a new medium)? 1. Absorption 2. Reflection 3. Refraction 4. Diffraction
Energy in wave is transformed into a different form of energy, usually thermal energy.
Law of Reflection • The angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection • It bounces off at the same angle it hits the surface with 45° 45°
Refraction • a wave bending • A wave moves from one medium (substance) into another at an angle… • it changes speed as it enters the second medium… • which causes it to bend. • ex: water
REFRACTION IN NATURE Wave speed depends on the medium Click on picture for internet animation
Diffraction • A wave spreading • A wave passes a barrier or moves through a hole in a barrier… • it bends and spreads out • ex: a harbor
DIFFRACTION when a wave bends around an edge or spreads through an opening • familiar examples: sound waves (speakers in a room) and water waves (breaker opening in harbors) • the amount of diffraction increases with increasing λ
INTERFERENCE when 2 or more waves meet while traveling in the same medium (overlapping waves) • the NET displacement (amplitude) is the sum of the amplitude of the waves • Constructive or destructive interference • Creates standing waves & beats
Interference • the result of two or more sound • waves overlapping
Interference • Waves combining • Constructive interference • Waves add together to make a larger amplitude + + = =
CONSTRUCTIVE INTERFERENCE larger displacement(larger amplitude) crest overlaps crest or tough overlaps trough
CONSTRUCTIVE INTERFERENCE • Resonance • When an object vibration at a particular frequency • Seen in musical instruments, especially strings • Sympathetic resonanceWhen one vibrating object induces a vibration in another object • Soldiers do not walk in formation across bridges • Tacoma Narrows Bridge
Interference (cont.) • Destructive interference • Waves add together to make a smaller amplitude + + = =
DESTRUCTIVE INTERFERENCE smaller displacement(smaller amplitude) crest overlaps trough displacement/ amplitude is reduced crest cancels trough
Different sounds that you hear include (A) noise, (B) pure tones, and (C) musical notes.
BEATS: INTERFERENCE Wave 1 (red) and Wave 2 (blue) combine to form beat pattern (in green)High amplitude = LOUD Low amplitude = soft Overlapping waves of different f (frequencies) • In music interference creates “beats” (changes in loudness & softness)
Fan’n’Pick Student #1: Fan the cards Student #2: Pick a card and asks the question Student #3: Answers the question Student #4: Praise if correct or tutors if wrong
Topics on Tomorrow’s Quiz • What creates sound • Sound wave type • Loudness (volume) related to amplitude • Frequency related pitch • Wavelength vs. frequency and pitch • Music and Noise • Wave interactions • Absorption • Reflection (if its sound, its an echo) • Refraction • Diffraction • Interference • Constructive Interference • Destructive Interference
The Doppler Effect Change in frequency (and pitch) due to a moving sound source is known as the Doppler effect. http://www.kettering.edu/~drussell/Demos/doppler/carhorn.wav http://sol.sci.uop.edu/~jfalward/wavessound/wavessound.html http://www.fearofphysics.com/
The Doppler Effect Objects moving towards you -- increasein frequency or pitch (pitch rises) Objects moving away from you -- decreasein frequency or pitch (pitches sinks)
