The nature of sound waves

Applications and Skills

Sketching and interpreting displacement-distance and displacement-time graphs for longitudinal waves.

NOTE TO STUDENTS:
You may choose to watch the video (Task #3) before you complete the Graphs worksheet (Task #2).

Task #1: View this PowerPoint on Graphs of Sound Waves (7 mins) Task #2: View this Standing Longitudinal Wav e simulation (3 mins) Task #3: Download and complete this worksheet on Graphs of a Longitudinal Wave (20 mins) Task 4: Watch this video Transverse and Longitudinal Waves (16 mins) Extra: If you finish early go to the "Assessment" page on the Physics weebly and download a copy of the LabQuest 2 User Manual and do some reading to become more familiar with this piece of hardware. It could be very useful when you do your I.A.!
