Lesson 4 Effects Of Temperature To The Speed Of Sound Flashcards
Anything that we can hear from our surroundings, things that we can hear and travels in the form of sound waves and the vibrations are hurt when they reach our ears.
Sound
Sound waves are affected by many factors as they travel in various channels and media. Which media will the sound be the fastest to travel.
A.Solid
B.Liquid
C.Gas
D.Plasma
A
In which matter does the sound waves travels the slowest
Gas
It is the ability of a deformed material to return to its original form, shape or size after removing the force that causes the deformation.
Elasticity
It is the intrinsic property of any object. It is an object’s mass per unit volume which is obtained by dividing the mass of the object by its volume. It is a description of how compact the atoms and molecules in an object.
Density
Speed of sound is measured in 0°C=331m/s every increase of Celsius is
1°C increase= 0.60 m/s increase. Measure the speed of sound if the air temperature is 30°C
349m/s
What temperature does the sound travel the fastest.
Warmer; the warmer the temperature the faster the sound travels
Describe as the turning back of the wave as it hits a barrier.Its example is echo
Reflection
Multiple reflections or echoes in a certain place. This best fits the bathroom which enhances the voice.
Reverberation
The change of sound waves as they pass from one medium to another.
Refraction
What are the factors of speed of sound
Density elasticity and temperature
When does an echo occurs
When a sound wave is a reflected
What phenomenon explains why sound is heard at longer distance at night than in day
Refraction
