1If the frequency increases, what will happen? You can tick more than one box.
- AAmplitude will increase
- BAmplitude will decrease
- CLoudness will increase
- DLoudness will decrease
- EPitch will increase
- FPitch will decrease
- GWavelength will increase
- HWavelength will decrease
2Label the marked spots on the diagram below

- Acompression
- Brarefaction
3Label the picture below

- Awavelength
4What will you HEAR differently if the wavelength increases?
- AThe pitch will increase
- BThe pitch will decrease
- CThe frequency will increase
- DThe frequency will decrease
- EThe loudness will increase
- FThe loudness will decrease
5The frequency limit of a human is between [blank_start]20[blank_end] and [blank_start]20000[blank_end] Hz
- A20
- B20000
6Echoes are:
- ARefraction of sound
- BReflection of sound
- CTotal internal reflection of sound
- DDiffraction of sound
7This wave is [blank_start]3[blank_end] Hz because it has [blank_start]3[blank_end] waves in [blank_start]1[blank_end] second (write in numbers not letters)

- A3
- B3
- C1
8The wavelength is the vertical distance from the equilibrium (middle)
- ATrue
- BFalse
9Sound travels when the molecules in the [blank_start]medium[blank_end] vibrates. The closer the molecules are, the [blank_start]faster[blank_end] sound travels. The fastest medium is a [blank_start]solid[blank_end] while sound does not travel in a [blank_start]vacuum[blank_end]. In the ear, a vibrating object e.g. a trumpet produces waves. Sound then travels from the [blank_start]medium[blank_end] (air) to the ear. The vibrating air enters the ear, fuelled to the [blank_start]ear canal[blank_end]. The vibrating air sets up vibrations in the [blank_start]ear drums[blank_end]. The ear drums then transmit the vibrations to the small bones called [blank_start]ossicles[blank_end], causing them to vibrate. The [blank_start]cochlea[blank_end] vibrates. These vibrations are detected by the hair lining and the [blank_start]auditory nerve[blank_end] will then detect these vibrations and send the impulses to the brain.

10An echo sounder ship is tested where the sea bed is known to be 60 m deep. The time between sending each ultrasonic pulse and receiving its echo was measured at 0.1s. The time for the ultrasonic wave to reach the sea bed is [blank_start]0.05[blank_end] s. To find the speed, we have to use the equation speed = distance/time, so [blank_start]60[blank_end] division by [blank_start]0.05[blank_end]= [blank_start]1200[blank_end] m/s.
- A0.05
- B60
- C0.05
- D1200
