\n<\/strong>SOUND WAVES
\n<\/strong>PRODUCTION
\n<\/strong>Sound waves are produced by vibrating objects. Some of the source of sound are talking, shouting, beating, beating drums, blowing of flutes, shooting of a rifle, a ringing telephone, the noise from moving cars and airplanes and musical instruments.<\/p>\n

\u00a0TRANSMISSION OF SOUND WAVES
\n<\/strong>Sound travels from place to place as sound waves. Sound must have a substance to travel through i.e it does not travel through a vacuum. There is nothing in a vacuum to pass on a vibrations. Sound waves are longitudinal waves i.e the air vibrates backwards and forwards in the wave is moving.<\/p>\n

\u00a0It can travel through solids, liquids and gases. The air changes the vibration into impulses which are carried into brain for interpretation.<\/p>\n

\u00a0CHARACTERISTICS OF SOUND
\n<\/strong>A. PITCH
\n<\/strong>This depends on the frequency of the sound waves. If the frequency is increase, the pitch of the sound also increases.<\/p>\n

\u00a0B. LOUDNESS
\n<\/strong>The loudness of the sound depends on its intensity. The intensity of the sound of the wave is the rate of the flow of energy per unit area, perpendicular to the direction of the wave.
\nIntensity is proportional to the square of the amplitude. The greater the intensity, the louder the sound.<\/p>\n

\u00a0C. QUALITY<\/strong>
\n\t\tThis is the property which enables us to distinguish the same note played on different instruments e.g a piano and an organ, the quality of a musical notes depends on the harmonies. When a note is produced, the strongest, audible frequency heard is the fundamental. All other frequencies present ar harmonics or overtones.<\/p>\n

\u00a0FORCED VIBRATION
\n<\/strong>If tuning fork A is struck and stopped, you find that it will cause tuning fork B to vibrate, provided both forks have the same frequency. This is called forced vibration. Other form off forced vibration include:<\/p>\n

\u00a0(1) RESONANCE<\/strong>
\n\t\tResonance is a special case of forced vibration which occurs when a system is made to vibrate at its own natural frequency as a result of forced vibrations received from another sources of the same frequency.<\/p>\n

\u00a0(11) RESONANCE IN STRINGS<\/strong>
\n\t\tstationary waves can occur on a stretched string or wire.. This is obtained by varying the driving frequency of the string.<\/p>\n
