sound
a condition of disturbance of particles in a medium

mass
any form of matter capable of vibratory motion
any form of _ capable of _ motion
elasticity
allows a medium to resist permanent distortion to its original shape or distribution of particles (aka "springiness")
pure tone
a sound of only one frequency (aka sinusoidal motion, sine wave, simple sound)
complex sound
sound in which energy is distributed at more than one frequency, such as in speech sounds
sound in which _ is distributed at more than one _
compression
when molecules move away from the sound source
rarefaction
when molecules bounce back to original position due to elasticity
absorption
taking in of sound wave energy
reflection
phenomenon of sound waves bouncing off surfaces
reverberation
the prolongation of a sound through multiple or continuous reflections
spatial concepts
amplitude
wavelength
amplitude
maximum displacement of particles of a medium (aka "loudness")
maximum _ of _ of a _
wavelength
linear measurement of the distance a sound wave disturbance can travel during one complete cycle of vibration,

can be expressed in feet or meters,

inversely related to frequency
_ measurement of the _ a sound wave _ can _ during one _ _ of _

can be expressed in _ or _

inversely related to _
longitudinal waves
wave in which the particles of the medium move in the same direction as the movement of the wave,

e.g. as in a sound wave
wave in which the particles of the _ move in the same direction as the _ of the wave
inverse square law
verifies the fact that sound propagation is spherical in nature by showing the predictability of amplitude measurements at specified distances from the sound source
temporal concepts
cycle
period
frequency
velocity
cycle
a time concept referring to vibrator movement from rest position, to maximum displacement in one direction, to rest, to maximum displacement in the opposite direction, and back to rest again,
measured in seconds
a _ concept referring to _ movement from _ position, to _ _ in one _, to rest, to _ _ in the opposite _, and back to rest again,

measured in _
period
time for one complete cycle of vibration to occur, measured in seconds
frequency
number of complete cycles that occur during a certain time period, expressed in cycles per second (cps) or Hertz (Hz)
velocity
the speed of sound through a transmitting medium (1100 ft/second or 340m/second)
pitch
perceptual correlate of frequency
waveform
an amplitude-by-time display of sound
an _ by _ display of _

graph displaying sound in terms of frequency and amplitude variations as a function of time
graph displaying sound in terms of _ and _ variations as a _ of _
fundamental frequency
the lowest frequency of a complex sound
harmonics
frequencies in the voicing spectrum which are whole number multiples of the fundamental frequency (aka partials)
_ in the _ _ which are whole number multiples of the _ _
periodic sounds
the wave shape repeats itself as a function in time (e.g. pure tones, vowel sounds, voiced phonemes, musical instruments)
aperiodic sounds
the wave shape does not repeat itself as a function in time, does not possess fundamental or periodic frequency due to lack of cyclical behavior (e.g. unvoiced phonemes, static)
the _ _ does not repeat itself as a _ in _, does not possess _ or _ frequency due to lack of _ _
