Sound
A longitudinal wave in a medium
The greater the pressure amplitude of the sinusoid a sound wave the greater the perceived…
Loudness
Doppler effect
When a source of sound and a listener are in motion relative to each other the frequency of the sound heard by The Listener is not the same as a source frequency
How to track satellites in other space Vehicles using the Doppler effect
A satellite emits a radio signal with a constant frequency as the satellite orbits passed it first approaches and then moves away from the receiver the frequency of the signal received honors changes from a greater value then F constant to a value that is less than F constant as his satellite passes overhead
Shockwaves
A Sound Source moving with a speed velocity constant greater than the speed of sound velocity creates a Shockwave
