Sound Waves
• The origin of any sound is a vibrating object– Usually the frequency of the sound is the
same as that of the vibrating object• Frequency Range:
Sound: 20 Hz – 20,000 HzUltrasound: >20,000 HzInfrasound: < 20 Hz

Forced Vibration & Resonance
• forced vibration – example -- strike tuning fork and hold the stem against the table
• sounding board -- used to amplify sound in music boxes and all string
• resonance -- when the frequency of forced vibrations matches the object's natural frequency, a dramatic increase in amplitude occurs

Speed of Sound• depends on wind conditions,
temperature, and humidity • does NOT depend on loudness or
frequency of the sound• all sounds travel at the same speed in
the same medium in dry air at 0°C ~ 330 m/s (1200 km/h)
• Sound travels faster through warm air than cold air.
• In air, vsound = 330 m/s + (0.6 m/s/Co)*TC

Pitch & Loudness
• Pitch – frequency
Double frequency – go up an octave
• Loudness – amplitude

Decibel Scale• incredibly sensitive • can hear everything
from fingertip brushing lightly over fabric to a loud jet engine
• sound of jet engine is about 1012 times more powerful than smallest audible sound
• a big difference! • decibel scale --
smallest audible sound is 0 dB
• A sound 10 times more powerful is 10 dB
• A sound 100 times more powerful than near total silence is 20 dB
Decibel Scale is
logarithmic

Decibel Levels• Near total silence - 0 dB • A whisper - 15 dB • Normal conversation - 60 dB • A lawnmower - 90 dB • A car horn - 110 dB • A rock concert or a jet engine - 120
dB • A gunshot or firecracker - 140 dB

Waves Moving in and Out of Phase
• When the 2 waves are in phase, the resulting disturbance has a maximum amplitude.
• When the 2 waves are out of phase, the resulting disturbance has a minimum amplitude.

Beats
• Waves of slightly different frequencies form a pattern of alternating maximum and minimum amplitude.
• The packets of maximum amplitude are called beats.

Noise Canceling• tiny microphones, one on
each earpiece, detect ambient noise before it gets to your ears.
• noise-cancellation circuitry inverts the captured signal, turning the noise's sound wave upside down.
• noise-cancellation system adds the sonic opposite of the external noise to whatever you're listening to
• eliminating most of the pollution and leaving you with just your music.
