Sound - - Phychological Definion
|
Sensation caused on human ear by acoustic event or comressional wave (listener is needed -- interpret loudness or pitch)
|
|
|
|
|
Physical Definition of Sound
|
Disturbance in a medium that is caused by a vibrating body that sets the medium into a vibration Need: Sound source capable of vibrating and medium capable of vibrating
|
|
A sound source must have
|
physical properties of mass and elasticity
|
|
A medium is an agent in which a sound wave (caused by vibratory movement) flows through material where energy transfer occurs
|
|
|
A medium must have
|
mass and elasticity
|
|
The simplest ocillation is
|
Simple harmonic motion
|
|
MASS IS
|
the amount of matter in an object a body's resistence to change (measurement) measurment of not wanting ot change # of atoms in a gram will be consistent
|
|
The greater the mass..
|
the greater the body's resistence to change
|
|
1kg =
|
1000g
|
|
Mass
|
(m) resistence to change
|
|
Weight
|
a force -- the attractive force that gravity exerts on a mass
|
|
Force
|
(F) an influence that can deform or change an object's state of motion. The push or pull on an object in a specific direction
|
|
Acceleration
|
a
|
|
F =
|
F=ma a= acceleration m=mass F=Force
|
|
Weight
|
(w) is a force exerted on mass
|
|
If mass and weight increase proportionally, this would be called a
|
direct relationship
|
|
If one element increases and the other decreases this would be called an
|
indirect relationship
|
|
Density
|
(p) amount of mass per unit volume p=m/v where density has a direct relationship to mass and densiity has an indirect relationship to volume
|
|
Elasticity
|
(E) "object's Springyness" property that allows an object to return to it's original shape once a force has acted upon it. object's ability to resist distortion or changes in shape or volume
|
|
What element have the quality of elasticity?
|
all solid, liquid and gas
|
|
What is the point when a force applied adequate enough to cause permanent distortion?
|
Elastic LImit Point of breaking depends on internal elasticity
|
|
A sound source must have both
|
mass and elasticity
