Which type of wave is sound?

3

What is the speed of sound in air at 20°C (approximately)?

4

Which property primarily determines the pitch of a sound?

5

Which property primarily determines the loudness of a sound?

6

What term describes bending of light when it enters a different medium?

7

Which method uses a sharp clap and an echo to measure distance?

8

Does temperature affect the speed of sound?

9

What is the basic wave equation relating speed, frequency, and wavelength?

10

Which objects produce their own light?

Feedback

Sound requires a vibrating medium to transfer energy.

Sound travels as compressions and rarefactions in a medium.

Speed of sound in air is around 340 m/s at room temperature.

Higher frequency yields a higher pitch.

Louder sounds have greater amplitude.

Refraction occurs due to change in light speed across media.

Echo distance can be found from the round-trip travel of sound.

Higher temperature speeds up particle motion, increasing sound speed.

Speed equals frequency times wavelength.

Luminous objects emit light; non-luminous objects reflect it.
