Q1) The speed of a sound wave in air depends upon 1) its frequency 2) its wavelength 3) the air temperature 4) all of these 5) none of these Q2) The speed of a sound wave is determined by: 1) its amplitude 2) its intensity 3) its pitch 4) number of harmonics present 5) the transmitting medium Q3) Which sounds travel the fastest through air? 1) Higher pitch 2) Lower pitch 3) Louder sounds 4) Quieter sounds 5) They all travel at the same speed Q4) Sound travels faster in 1) air. 2) water. 3) steel. 4) a vacuum. 5) Sound travels at about the same speed in all of the above media. Q5) The speed of a sound wave in air depends on 1) its frequency. 2) its wavelength. 3) the air temperature. 4) All of the above choices are correct. 5) None of the above choices are correct. Q6) The approximate range of human hearing is 1) 10 hertz to 10,000 hertz. 2) 20 hertz to 20,000 hertz. 3) 40 hertz to 40,000 hertz. 4) Actually all of these it depends on the hearing ability of the person. Q7) Sound waves can interfere with one another so that no sound results. 1) True 2) False 3) Either true or false, depending on the air temperature. Q7) A guitar string is plucked and set into vibration. The vibrating string disturbs the surrounding air, resulting in a sound wave. Which entry in the table below is correct? wave in string sound wave 1) The wave is transverse. yes yes 2) The wave speed increases if temp. rises no yes 3) The wave is longitudinal. yes yes 4) The wave transports energy. yes no 5) none of the above Q8) In the figure below, two point sources S1 and S2, which are in phase, emit identical sound waves of wavelength 2.0 m. If L1 = 39 m and L2 = 36 m, what type of interference occurs at point P? 1) fully constructive 2) fully destructive Q9) Two small identical speakers are connected (in phase) to the same source. The speakers are 3m apart and at ear le
