Sound

  1. Longitudinal waves

    • Wave energy is parallel to the oscillator (slinky)
      • Cannot travel through a vacuum
  2. Pitch and Volume

    • Frequency of a wave = pitch of sound
      • Frequency = number of waves/second
    • Amplitude of a wave = Volume of sound
      • Amplitude = how deep the troughs are
  3. Humans cannot hear over 20,000Hz

    • Ultrasonic is any sound over 20,000Hz
