To make soundsomething has to be moving
sound waves travelin all directions
sound waves startwith a vibration
Why do you see lightning before you hear thunderbecause sound travels slower than light
Sound can be absorbed bysoft materials
Sound can bereflected (or bounced back)
When sound is reflected off of something and comes back to your ear it is calledecho
the highness or lowness of a sound is itspitch
the loudness or softness of a sound is itsvolume
As the vibrations of an object increase in strength the sound getslouder
The hammer, anvil, and stirrups arethree bones in your ear that vibrate.
The slower the vibrations,the lower the pitch
The faster the vibrations,the higher the pitch
The part of your ear that we seeis yourouter ear
