§5,4 Amplitude

Before you do the questions:

1. You are setup in a group through zoom.
2. One of you shares your screen with the presentation on it.
3. Set lessonup to presentation mode.
4. One of you writes down the answers you come to in a word document (if this isn't possible, aks mr. Brands for help)
5. Now you're ready, start the questions

1a.)  How many waves do you count in each of the following three pictures?

5) Listen to these two sounds. Of which does the sound wave have a higher amplitude?

Sound A

Sound B

• Make sure to be in presentation mode.
• Click the icon to play the sound.
  
• Make sure to keep the volume of your computer the same!

4) Which of these two sound waves will produce a louder sound? Explain.

3) Describe what the amplitude of the wave and what the amplitude of a sounds wave says about that sound.

Bonus

1. What do you think happens to the loudness of a sound when two soundwaves meet?

Bonus

2. Are sound waves the only form of waves? If not, list other examples of waves. 

Bonus

3. Does the medium (for example air, or water) through which a wave moves move with the wave?
