Sound Matching

Match the concepts to the definitions

AB
sound is a form ofenergy
sound is caused byvibration
the energy of the vibration travels as asound wave
a sound wave is this kind of wavelongitudinal
all sound waves require this (hint: solid/liquid/gas)medium
the closer the molecules are to each other the _____ the sound wave can travelfaster
sound waves travel the fastest in this mediumsolids
sound cannot travel in thisa vacuum
this is how high or low a sound is (hint: musical note)pitch
this is how loud or soft a sound isvolume
pitch depends on thefrequency
volume depends onthe amount of energy
frequencyis the speed of vibration and is measured in HERTZ
a high frequency gives ahigh pitch
volume is measured indecibles
greater amplitude equalslouder sound
pitch depends onhow fast an object vibrates per second, frequency, and wavelength
