Questions and Answers

What is the equation for the velocity of a sound wave in terms of frequency and wavelength?

$v = f \lambda$ (correct)

$v = f + \lambda$

$v = \frac{\lambda}{f}$

$v = \frac{f}{\lambda}$

In which material does sound travel the fastest?

Diamond

Air

Cast Iron (correct)

Water

How does a speaker generate sound waves compared to piezoelectric materials for ultrasound generation?

Speakers generate ultrasound with higher frequency, while piezoelectric materials can generate sound waves with lower frequency

Speakers and piezoelectric materials generate sound waves with similar frequencies

Study Notes

Sound Waves

The velocity of a sound wave is given by the equation v = λf, where v is velocity, λ is wavelength, and f is frequency.

Material and Speed

Sound travels the fastest through steel, with a speed of approximately 5,960 meters per second.

Sound Generation

Speakers generate sound waves through the vibration of a diaphragm, which pushes and pulls air molecules to create pressure waves.
Piezoelectric materials, on the other hand, generate ultrasound waves through the application of an electric current, which causes the material to deform and create high-frequency sound waves.

Type of Wave

A sound wave is a type of mechanical longitudinal wave.

Period and Frequency

The period of a wave (T) is the reciprocal of its frequency (f), given by the equation T = 1/f.
