What term is used to describe the concentrations of aperiodic sounds with greater amounts of amplitude at different frequencies?
Band-pass frequency
In the context of vibrating strings, what waves are initiated by plucking a guitar string?
Transient waves
Which type of filter transmits energy more readily within a particular band or range of frequencies?
Band-pass filter
What happens when waves reflected back toward each other propagate in opposite directions?
They have the same frequency
What do differences in resonant frequency ranges enable different devices to act as?
Sound filters
The frequency at which a body or medium vibrates most readily is called its __________ frequency.
Natural
What type of waves move outward toward the two tied ends of a vibrating string?
Aperiodic waves
What do resonant frequency ranges allow different objects to do?
Act as filters for specific frequencies
Learn about frequency in waveforms, which represents the number of cycles per second. Frequency is measured in hertz (Hz), with one hertz equivalent to one cycle per second. Explore how to calculate and interpret frequency in different waveforms.
