sound is a ____________ wave in which particles in the medium move - ANS mechanical
where can sound not travel - ANS in a vacuum
are sound waves transverse or longitudinal waves - ANS longitudinal
the effects of the medium upon the sound wave - ANS acoustic propagation properties
what are used to distinguish between sound waves and other types of waves - ANS acoustic
variables- pressure, density, and distance (measure of a particle motion)
what are the 3 acoustic variables - ANS pressure, density and distance
1 @COPYRIGHT 2025/2026 ALLRIGHTS RESERVED.
,concentration of force in an area - ANS pressure
what is pressure measured in - ANS pascals (Pa)
concentration of mass in a volume - ANS density
what is volume measured in - ANS kg/cm^3 (cubic)
what describes a sound waves features - ANS acoustic parameters
what are the 7 acoustic parameters - ANS period, frequency, amplitude, power, intensity,
wavelength, propagation speed
how do particles move in soundwaves - ANS longitudinally- particles move in the same
direction that the wave propagates (parallel)
in-phase wave - ANS when their peaks and troughs occur at the same time
out of phase wave - ANS peaks and troughs occur at difference times
-either inverted or out of step
what occurs when waves lose their individual characteristics and combine to form a single wave
- ANS interference

, what combination of waves results in the formation of a single wave of greater amplitude of
either components - ANS constructive interference
what kind of wave causes the formation of a single wave of lesser amplitude causing what types
of interference - ANS out of phase
destructive interference
what occures when 2 out of phase waves of equal amplitude interfere - ANS complete
destructive interference
what types of waves (phase) occur with complete destructive interference - ANS out of phase
waves
what causes waves to be momentarily in phase and out of phase (causing constructive and
destructive interference) - ANS waves of difference frequencies
what type of waves of difference frequencies result in (type of interference) -
ANS constructive and destructive
what direction of the graph is verticle vs horozontal - ANS y=vertical
x=horozonatal
what is a reciprocal - ANS when the 2 numbers are multiplied together to = 1
(10 x 1/10)
