Sound is a ____________ wave in which particles in the medium move - Answers-
mechanical
Where can sound not travel - Answers-in a vacuum
Are sound waves transverse or longitudinal waves - Answers-longitudinal
What are the 7 acoustic parameters - Answers-period, frequency, amplitude, power,

How do particles move in soundwaves - Answers-longitudinally- particles move in the
same direction that the wave propagates (parallel)
In-phase wave - Answers-when their peaks and troughs occur at the same time
Out of phase wave - Answers-peaks and troughs occur at difference times
-either inverted or out of step
What occurs when waves lose their individual characteristics and combine to form a
single wave - Answers-interference
What combination of waves results in the formation of a single wave of greater
amplitude of either components - Answers-constructive interference
What kind of wave causes the formation of a single wave of lesser amplitude causing
what types of interference - Answers-out of phase
Destructive interference
What occures when 2 out of phase waves of equal amplitude interfere - Answers-
complete destructive interference
What types of waves (phase) occur with complete destructive interference - Answers-
out of phase waves
What causes waves to be momentarily in phase and out of phase (causing constructive
and destructive interference) - Answers-waves of difference frequencies
What type of waves of difference frequencies result in (type of interference) - Answers-
constructive and destructive
