Sound Wave Sound wave is a ________________ that requires a medium for its propagation.

. Therefore sound wave _______________________________The medium for propagation can be solid, liquid or gas. Sound waves propagate __________________and ____________________ Sound Wave as a Longitudinal Wave

Sound wave is a _____________________________________ of layers of air molecules repeatedly through space. The forward and bac ward vibration of the air molecules in the direction of motion of a sound wave shows that sound is a __________________________.

Types of Sound Wave !uman ear is capable of hearing sound with frequency in the range of "#!$ % "#,###!$, and the sound wave with frequency in this range is called an ___________________. Sound wave with frequency lower than "#!$ is called an _____________________. Sound wave with frequency higher than "#,###!$ is called an ________________________. &nfrasonic 'udio(Sonic "#!$ % "####!$ )ltrasonic

Speed of sound wave in solids is greater than in liquids, which is greater than in

gases. Speed of sound in air is not affected by pressure, but is ____________________________. 's _________________________ of sound in air ,and other gases- is also ____________________. Sound usually

travels more slowly with greater altitude, due to reduced temperature.Speed of sound can be calculated by the equation .itch and Loudness

______________ is influenced by the

________________ of the sound wave.The greater the amplitude of sound wave, the higher the loudness of the wave. The _________ of a sound is __________________ of the sound. The pitch of sound is determined by its frequency. The ________________________________________________ /eflection of Sound Wave

4arbon dio2ide is __________ than air. The sound wave is refracted approaching the normal when the wave propagates from the air into the balloon, and _______________________ when moving out from the balloon. 's a result, the balloon acts as a _________________ and converge the sound wave at a point. /efraction of Sound Wave "

!elium gas is _____________________ than air. The sound wave is __________________ when the wave propagates from the air into the balloon, and closer to the _______________ when moving out from the balloon. 's a result, the wave is ___________________________ and causes the amplitude of the sound wave decreases. /efraction 5 6atural .henomenon
