IP3 08 General Wave Properties
Representing a Longitudinal Wave Graphically
I modified an existing simulation to demonstrate how the displacement of particles along a longitudinal wave can be represented in graphical form. Essentially, one would have to...
Graphical Representation of Waves
Use the quiz below to test your ability to interpret graphs of waves. You can click on a point in the map to read the values. The codes for this quiz are generated by AI. However,...
Pressure-Distance Graph of a Sound Wave
This GeoGebra applet was modified from an existing applet to show the relationship between the pressure-distance and displacement-distance graph of a progressive longitudinal wave.
Longitudinal and Transverse Waves
I modified Tom Walsh's original GeoGebra app to add a moveable single oscillating particle for students to observe its movement along a longitudinal wave and a transverse wave....
Movement of Particle in a Wave
This GeoGebra app allows students to observe closely the movement of a particle in a progressive wave, with two possible directions of energy propagation. In a typical question,...
Measuring speed of sound in air using Audacity
A physics demonstration on how to measure the speed of sound in air using Audacity , an open source audio recording software. There are Windows and Mac versions of this free...
Learning about Sound with Audacity
Audacity is a free audio recording and editing software downloadable from http://audacity.sourceforge.net . It is cross-platform meaning you can run it on PC or Mac. Once you have...
Measuring Speed of Sound
Outline for Measuring the Speed of Sound Using a Tuning Fork and a Hollow Pipe Submerged in Water: Equipment Setup : Obtain a tuning fork of known frequency and a hollow pipe that...
