15.1 Properties of Sound
Key Question:
What is sound and how do we hear it?
*Students read Section 15.1 AFTER Investigation 15.1
![Page 6: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
15.1 Properties of Sound
If you could see the atoms, the difference between high and low pressure is not as great. Here, it is exaggerated.
![Page 7: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
15.2 The frequency of sound
We hear frequencies of sound as having different pitch.
A low frequency sound has a low pitch, like the rumble of a big truck.
A high-frequency sound has a high pitch, like a whistle or siren.
In speech, women have higher fundamental frequencies than men.

15.1 Complex sound
![Page 9: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Common Sounds and their Loudness
![Page 10: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
15.1 Loudness
Every increase of 20 dB, means the pressure wave is 10 times greater in amplitude.
Logarithmic scale
Linear scale
Decibels (dB) Amplitude
0 1
20 10
40 100
60 1,000
80 10,000
100 100,000
120 1,000,000
![Page 11: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
15.1 Sensitivity of the ear How we hear the loudness
of sound is affected by the frequency of the sound as well as by the amplitude.
The human ear is most sensitive to sounds between 300 and 3,000 Hz.
The ear is less sensitive to sounds outside this range.
Most of the frequencies that make up speech are between 300 and 3,000 Hz.
![Page 12: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
15.1 How sound is created The human voice is a
complex sound that starts in the larynx, a small structure at the top of your windpipe.
The sound that starts in the larynx is changed by passing through openings in the throat and mouth.
Different sounds are made by changing both the vibrations in the larynx and the shape of the openings.
![Page 13: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
15.1 Recording sound1. A common way to record sound starts with
a microphone. A microphone transforms a sound wave into an electrical signal with the same pattern of oscillation.
![Page 14: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
15.1 Recording sound2. In modern digital recording, a sensitive
circuit converts analog sounds to digital values between 0 and 65,536.
![Page 15: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15.1 Recording sound3. Numbers correspond to the amplitude of
the signal and are recorded as data. One second of compact-disk-quality sound is a list of 44,100 numbers.
![Page 16: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
15.1 Recording sound4. To play the sound back, the string of numbers is
read by a laser and converted into electrical signals again by a second circuit which reverses the process of the previous circuit.
![Page 17: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
15.1 Recording sound5. The electrical signal is amplified until it is
powerful enough to move the coil in a speaker and reproduce the sound.
![Page 18: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
15.2 Sound Waves
Key Question:
Does sound behave like other waves?
*Students read Section 15.2 BEFORE Investigation 15.2
![Page 19: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
15.2 Sound Waves
1. Sound has both frequency (that we hear directly) and wavelength (demonstrated by simple experiments).
2. The speed of sound is frequency times wavelength.
3. Resonance happens with sound.
4. Sound can be reflected, refracted, and absorbed and also shows evidence of interference and diffraction.
![Page 20: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
15.2 Sound WavesA sound wave is a wave of alternating high-
pressure and low-pressure regions of air.
![Page 21: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
15.2 The wavelength of sound
![Page 22: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
15.2 The Doppler effect The shift in frequency caused by motion is
called the Doppler effect. It occurs when a sound source is moving at
speeds less than the speed of sound.
![Page 23: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
![Page 24: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
15.2 The speed of sound The speed of sound in air is 343 meters per
second (660 miles per hour) at one atmosphere of pressure and room temperature (21°C).
An object is subsonic when it is moving slower than sound.
![Page 25: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
15.2 The speed of sound We use the term supersonic to describe motion at
speeds faster than the speed of sound. A shock wave forms where the wave fronts pile up. The pressure change across the shock wave is what
causes a very loud sound known as a sonic boom.
![Page 26: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
![Page 27: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
15.2 Standing waves and resonance Spaces enclosed by boundaries can create
resonance with sound waves. The closed end of a pipe is a closed boundary. An open boundary makes an antinode in the
standing wave. Sounds of different frequencies are made by
standing waves. A particular sound is selected by designing the
length of a vibrating system to be resonant at the desired frequency.
![Page 28: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
![Page 29: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
15.2 Sound waves and boundaries Like other waves,
sound waves can be reflected by surfaces and refracted as they pass from one material to another.
Sound waves reflect from hard surfaces.
Soft materials can absorb sound waves.
![Page 30: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
15.2 Fourier's theorem Fourier’s theorem says any complex wave can
be made from a sum of single frequency waves.
![Page 31: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
15.2 Sound spectrum A complex wave is really a sum of component
frequencies. A frequency spectrum is a graph that shows the
amplitude of each component frequency in a complex wave.
![Page 32: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
15.3 Sound, Perception, and Music
Key Question:
How is musical sound different than other types of sound?
*Students read Section 15.3 AFTER Investigation 15.3
![Page 33: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
15.3 Sound, Perception, and Music A single frequency by itself does not have
much meaning. The meaning comes from patterns in many
frequencies together.
A sonogram is a special kind of graph that shows how loud sound is at different frequencies.
Every person’s sonogram is different, even when saying the same word.
![Page 34: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
15.3 Hearing sound The eardrum vibrates
in response to sound waves in the ear canal.
The three delicate bones of the inner ear transmit the vibration of the eardrum to the side of the cochlea.
The fluid in the spiral of the cochlea vibrates and creates waves that travel up the spiral.
![Page 35: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
15.3 Sound
The nerves near the beginning see a relatively large channel and respond to longer wavelength, low frequency sound.
The nerves at the small end of the channel respond to shorter wavelength, higher-frequency sound.
![Page 36: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
15.3 Music The pitch of a sound is how high or low we hear its frequency. Though pitch and
frequency usually mean the same thing, the way we hear a pitch can be affected by the sounds we heard before and after.
Rhythm is a regular time pattern in a sound. Music is a combination of sound and rhythm that we find pleasant. Most of the music you listen to is created from a pattern of frequencies called a
musical scale.
![Page 37: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
![Page 38: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
15.3 Consonance, dissonance, and beats
Harmony is the study of how sounds work together to create effects desired by the composer.
When we hear more than one frequency of sound and the combination sounds good, we call it consonance.
When the combination sounds bad or unsettling, we call it dissonance.
![Page 39: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
15.3 Consonance, dissonance, and beats
Consonance and dissonance are related to beats. When frequencies are far enough apart that
there are no beats, we get consonance. When frequencies are too close together, we
hear beats that are the cause of dissonance. Beats occur when two frequencies are close, but
not exactly the same.
![Page 40: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)

15.3 Harmonics and instruments The same note sounds different when played on
different instruments because the sound from an instrument is not a single pure frequency.
The variation comes from the harmonics, multiples of the fundamental note.
![Page 42: Unit 5, Chapter 15 CPO Science Foundations of Physics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081501/56649ce15503460f949ab520/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Application: Sound from a Guitar
