the effects of the medium upon the sound wave
- Answer acoustic propagation properties
what are used to distinguish between sound waves and other types of - Answer
waves acoustic
variables- pressure, density, and distance (measure of a particle motion)
what are the 3 acoustic variables
- Answer pressure, density and distance
concentration of force in an area
- Answer pressure
what is pressure measured-inAnswer pascals (Pa)
concentration of mass in a volume
- Answer density
what is volume measured -inAnswer kg/cm^3 (cubic)
what describes a sound waves features
- Answer acoustic parameters
what are the 7 acoustic parameters
- Answer period, frequency, amplitude, power, intensity,
wavelength, propagation speed
how do particles move in soundwaves
- Answer longitudinally
- particles move in the same
direction that the wave propagates (parallel)
in-phase wave- Answer when their peaks and troughs occur at the same time
