Acoustics and Resonance
Across
- 3. seconds/cycles
- 5. a force that "acts perpendicularly on a surface"
- 6. Consist of a series of frequencies that are systematically related to each other
- 7. Decrease in amplitude
- 10. any influence that causes an object to undergo a change in speed, direction, or shape
- 12. 2 or more frequencies but the frequencies are not systematically related to each other
- 14. Unit that measures the intensity of a sound
- 15. Wave given their name due to the appearance that they are "stationary"
- 17. Damping of a wave
- 18. Branch of physics concerned with the properties of sound
- 21. Pressure Pressure below atmospheric pressure
- 23. In motion stays in motion; At rest stays at rest
- 26. Wave changes direction due to an obstacle
- 29. Wave changes direction because of a local difference of temperature in the air
- 30. Resonance also Acoustical Resonance
- 31. The quantity of a three-dimnesional shape occupied by a liquid, solid, or gas
- 32. Lower pressure; molecules move farther apart
- 33. Pressure Pressure at sea level
- 35. The property of an object to return to its original shape
- 37. Sound passes through something
- 38. Some portion of the sound wave that is not transmitted or absorbed bounces back from the surface of the boundary; traveling in opposite direction
- 40. a disturbance (sound source) creates changes in pressure throughout an elastic medium
Down
- 1. Law Volume and pressure are inversely related
- 2. Harmonic Motion A smooth back and forth motion
- 4. Something that is set into vibration by the action of another vibration
- 8. Maximum upward displacement; Max point of compression
- 9. Max. displacement from position of rest; Perception of loudness
- 11. Vibration occurring from a point of rest to max. displacement to rest to mac displacement; one compression and one rarefaction
- 13. A vibratory response to an applied force
- 16. Pressure Pressure above the atmospheric pressure
- 19. Positive pressure; molecules move close together
- 20. Distance from crest to crest or trough to trough
- 22. Cycles/Seconds
- 24. Disturbance of pressure that moves through a medium
- 25. Multiple reflections (echo)
- 27. Frequency Lowest Frequency
- 28. Lowest point in a cycle; Max point of rarefaction
- 34. The kind of sounds periodic and aperiodic are
- 36. 1. Sympathetic 2. Sounding Board and 3. Acoustic Resonance are examples of what type of vibration
- 39. refers to the amount of matter in an object
