  • Sound waves will transfer fastest through _______.
    solids
  • Will a LOUD sound will have a high or low amplitude?
    High amplitude
  • [T/F] : Sound travels the FASTEST through air.
    False
  • High frequency = _______ Pitch
    High
  • The pitch of a sound is directly related to the sound's _______.
    frequency
  • When Qi Zhe yells his name in a cave, the sound reflects off the walls of the cave and travels back to his ears. What is this sound called?
    echo
  • Which travels faster, light or sound?
    Light
  • Why will sound echo in an empty room? explain your answer.
    Yes, because there are only hard surfaces so sound only reflects.
  • explain how boat used echo to find out the depth of water.
    the boat send the sound to the surface and the echo reflected, calculate the distance by using equation.
  • Will sound be absorbed or reflected by these objects: brick, concrete, glass, tile, wood
    Reflected
  • [T/F] : Sound travels through a vacuum
    False
  • What shape does sound travel in?
    waves
  • The ______ of a sound depends on the medium through which it's moving.
    speed
  • The loudness of a sound is directly related to the wave's _____.
    amplitude
  • Sound waves is produced by ______________.
    vibration of an object.
  • name two things that are required for sound reflection.
    hard surface and sound wave.
  • Will sound be reflected or absorbed by these objects: hair, cotton, carpet, flag, pillow
    Absorbed
  • Using particle theory, explain the speed of sound in solid and in gas medium.
    solid particle closely pack together, the transfer the vibration faster than in other medium. Gas particles are far way from one another., transfer slower.
