A | B |
sound is a form of | energy |
sound is caused by | vibration |
the energy of the vibration travels as a | sound wave |
a sound wave is this kind of wave | longitudinal |
all sound waves require this (hint: solid/liquid/gas) | medium |
the closer the molecules are to each other the _____ the sound wave can travel | faster |
sound waves travel the fastest in this medium | solids |
sound cannot travel in this | a vacuum |
this is how high or low a sound is (hint: musical note) | pitch |
this is how loud or soft a sound is | volume |
pitch depends on the | frequency |
volume depends on | the amount of energy |
frequency | is the speed of vibration and is measured in HERTZ |
a high frequency gives a | high pitch |
volume is measured in | decibles |
greater amplitude equals | louder sound |
pitch depends on | how fast an object vibrates per second, frequency, and wavelength |
