4. Pressure amplitudes and sound volume. (Similar to Musical Acoustics, Chapter 1, Exercise 12.) If the rarefactions of a particular sound wave reduce the pressure to 0.998 atm a) what is the pressure in the compressions? b) What is the amplitude of this wave, expressed first in atm and then in N/m2? c) Is this a soft or a loud sound?
Sound is often characterized by the decibel scale. 60 decibels is normal conversation and that corresponds to a sound pressure level of about 0.02 Pa. Consider the A-440 pure tone. This is a sine wave at 440 Hz with an amplitude of 0.02 Pa. If this wave travels through air at standard conditions, determine the wavelength of the wave, and variation of pressure, temperature, and density with time as one wave passes through a given receiving location. 4.
4. Your ears detect a sound wave with a frequency of 315 Hz and a sound intensity level of 80 dB. It originated in a vibrating string with a length of 1.9 meters. A) Waves can be longitudinal or transverse. What is the difference between these two kinds of waves? B) This question has one longitudinal wave and one transverse wave. Identify them. C) Recall that the sound you hear from a string is the fundamental frequency, which has a...

1. When a sound wave passes through air, and we hear it, the air pressure where we are varies with time. the excess pressure above (and below) atmospheric pressure in a sound wave is given by the graph below: p(t) t in seconds -1 (a) Show that the fundamental (n ) is 15 times smaller in amplitude compared to the second harmonic (n-2). Hint: Expand p() in a Fourier series to show this. It would be interesting to note that...
