    CRASH! “Ow!” I thought while the waves crashed up against me.There’s a storm and I am in it because I got stuck in a fishnet. I was with my parents and there was a big wave that crashed on the rocks we were sitting on. I fell into the water and my head and tail got stuck on a fishnet. I was struggling to get out but I couldn’t move anything or go anywhere. Finally after about an hour of floating around I washed up on a beach where there was a terrible storm. I still couldn’t move anything…

    1. Explain the difference between periodic and aperiodic waveforms. What are the visual differences? What are the characteristic sonic qualities of each? (2 points) Answer: A periodic waveform has repeatable patterns. Also, periodic waveforms have a tone. Most musical instruments have repeating periodic waveform. The periodic waveforms can also be found in bird sound and human vocal voice. However, an aperiodic waveform dose not have a repeating waveform and tone, like noise, the engine idling…

    surfing" said Koda. I could feel the soft squishy sand as I got down on my stomach and rolled onto my board. The water picked my board up and I started paddling out to sea with Koda. The waves were got higher as we got deeper to sea. I could barely see Koda though the waves. Every time I tried to get over a wave it would always push me back to the beach. I kept trying and I finally got over…

    sunset. The air was moist. I was in Maui, Hawaii. Everyone was yelling, screaming, hollering and having fun. Kids were flying their kites. People were eating pizza and icecream. Then suddenly, everything became quiet. Everyone was looking at me. The wave broke the silence as it jumped on me like a tackle in football. I felt like I had the ball because I kept getting tackled by the water! I was wobbling in the water and trying to find a way to get out. I was a squirmy little guy without a life…

    vibrations . How sound work is the vibrations emit from whatever has made the sound in what is known as a longitudinal wave.A longitudinal wave is a wave that travels in a single direction. Next how can we hear sound. We can hear sound from a longitudinal wave for example when a tree falls and energy is released vibrations are created and a longitudinal wave is sent out but anyone might not hear the sound. In order for someone to hear the sound somebody would have to be on the other side. Most…

    evacuation procedures, even more people's lives would be at risk than in the Illapel earthquake. Examining the Waves Created by the Earthquake The damage caused by the earthquake would happen as a result of the waves the earthquake produces. Earthquakes produce two types of waves: longitudinal waves (often referred to as P-waves) and transverse waves (often called S-waves). Transverse waves cause most of the damage after an earthquake…

    evidence for the structure of the Earth comes from studying waves generated during an earthquake. When stress builds up and rocks at depth break, then elastic waves, just like sound waves are sent from the point of rupture. These waves speed out and move through the earth. When we put seismometers…

    primarily based on Sinusoidal waves and how to use and apply this to represent and develop musical notes. In doing so, I had to use a variety of properties of trigonometry for the key aspects in this artifact. Such as, building an instrument and finding out the relationship between sound waves and the sinusoidal representation. Sinusoidal is any graph mainly consisted of either the sine or cosine function. The general formula for Sinusoidal waves is y=Acosfx+C.The height of the wave of this…

    The s-wave is wave A. The p-wave is always going to be faster than the s-wave. Wave B starts at the velocity of about 8 km/s and wave A starts at about 4 km/s. Since wave A is moving slower, it is the s-wave. Wave A also reflected off the outer core and wave B refracted. The p-wave is wave B. The p-wave is always going to move faster than the s-wave. Wave B starts at the velocity of about 8 km/s and wave A starts at about 4 km/s. Since wave B is moving faster, it is the p-wave. The…
