| if one doubles the mass in a simple harmonic oscillator what happens to the frequency? |
|
| the frequency decreases by a factor of about 0.707 (1/squareroot2) |
|
| You do a Fourier analysis on a sound sample and find the lowest frequency to be 256 Hz and the next higher harmonic to be 512 hz. At what frequency do you expect to find the next higher harmonic? |

|
| What makes this a true statement, “in space no one can hear you scream in apace?” |
|
| sound cannot travel without a medium vacuum means no air no air means no medium |

|
|
| when you add water to a bottle and blow across its mouth |
|
| the frequency gets higher because the “air spring” is stiffer with less volume |
|
| A radio produces sound because |
|
| the audio signal is encoded in the radiowave amplitude or frequency |
