absorption
reflection
rarefaction
compression
2
All sound waves are created by a back and forth motion called
vibrations
plucking a string
instruments
Striking a surface
3
The more energy there is in a sound wave
the quickly you hear it
the louder the sound is
the softer the sound is
the longer the sound lasts
4
Would this be a high pitched sound or low pitched sound?
high pitched
low pitched
5
The part of the sound wave where molecules are crowded together is called the
matter
compression
vibration
rarefaction
6
The part of a sound wave where molecules are spread apart is called the
compression
rarefaction
loudness
tone
7
The difference you hear between two sounds of the same loudness and pitch is it
diaphragm
magnet
quality
vibration
8
Frequency is measured in units called
waves
radio waves
decibels
hertz
9

fundmental frequency
mechanical energy
compression
resonance
10
One of a series of pitches that blend to give a sound its quality is call a(n)
reflection
