Experiment 7: Velocity of Sound Laboratory Report Hazel Guerrero‚ Kyle Iddoba‚ Matthew Jocson‚ Thea Lagman Department of Biological Sciences College of Science‚ University of Santo Tomas Espanya‚ Manila Philippines Abstract Verification of the relationship between frequency of sound and its wavelength and the determination of the velocity and the speed of sound in different mediums was the main focus of this experiment. The speed of sound and its velocity was determined using the resonance

Electromagnetic waves are radiated energy of all different strengths. They’re different from sound waves and water waves because they have the ability to travel through empty space. A vacuum. These are the only types of waves that do not need any type of medium because of photons. Photons are tiny particles that don’t get traveled through‚ but make up electromagnetic waves. Photons travel with the wave at about 300‚000 k/s. also known as the speed of light. The more energy the photons have‚ the brighter

Sound and acoustics It is common to think that acoustics is the study of music. Although acoustics does comprise the study of musical instruments‚ it also includes an extensive range of topics‚ including: SONAR systems‚ noise control‚ ultrasounds for medical imaging and other processes‚ electroacoustic communication‚ seismology‚ etc. [1] In general‚ acoustics is the study of mechanical waves including sound‚ vibration‚ infrasound and ultrasound. When talking about the acoustics‚ it is essential

Beginning in the summer of 1869 Gustave Courbet produced a series of paintings depicting stormy seas during his stay at Etretat on the Normandy coast. The Wave (La Vague c.1872) exhibited in the National Gallery of Victoria is one such painting that features the central motif of a cresting wave. While many viewed the work as a simple realist seascape‚ the political implication of the work suggested by some of Courbet’s contemporaries is hardly discernable to the modern viewer. It can only be understood

maximum displacement. In this wave‚ it would be from the equilibrium to the top of the crest or bottom of the trough. B) C) Speed: m/s Frequency: Hz D) Speed: because speed is constant and not affected by the change in frequency. Wavelength:0.4 Hz. 2. In transvers waves the motion of the particles is perpendicular to the direction of the energy. In longitudinal waves it they are parallel to each other. Wavelength is the distance a wave has travelled after one cycle

Experiment 7: Velocity of Sound Jaybee J. Balilea‚ Sharmaine O. Baysic‚ Maria Anjelette Patricia C. Belen‚ Dianne Grace D. Bolloso Department of Biological Sciences College of Science‚ University of Santo Tomas Espana‚ Manila Abstract Sound is a mechanical wave that is an oscillation of pressure transmitted through a solid‚ liquid‚ or gas‚ composed of frequencies within the range of hearing and of a level sufficiently strong to be heard. It is produced when something vibrates causing

Seismic Waves What are seismic waves? Seismic waves are the waves of energy caused by breaking of rock within the earth or an explosion. These waves are the energy that travels through the earth and is recorded on seismographs. There are many different types of these waves‚ but the two main ones are the body waves that usually travel though in inner layer of the earth‚ and the surface waves that only move around the surface of the planet. Body waves travel through the inner layer of the earth

Lab Sheet 1. In the lab activity‚ you will examine sound waves as they are emitted from a moving source. Predict what will happen to the sound waves when the sound source is in motion. Record your prediction (hypothesis) as an “if then” statement. (For example: If you select the GO button‚ then the train will move) If the sound source is moving‚ as it get closer to the person it will get louder and the farther away it gets it starts to fade. 2. Select the boy icon. Select the lowest pitch by selecting

Sound A. What is the definition of Sound? Sound is everything that a person‚ animal or computer can hear. It can be created in a countless number of ways and occurs from anything as simple as tapping on a table. All sounds are a series of vibrations that travel through a medium in all possible directions. The cause of sound is the vibration of an object; once the item vibrates the sound waves then radiate outwards until they are either stopped or they die out. A sound wave has three characteristics:

Electromagnetic Waves It was once the great Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell (1831-1879) who had presented that electric and magnetic fields unstable together can form a spreading wave‚ appropriately called an electromagnetic wave. The properties of an electromagnetic wave are as follows: 1. They can travel through a vacuum at the same high speed‚ which is much faster than other types of waves that travel through a material. 2. They show the normal wave properties of reflection‚ refraction
