Sound is vibrations

An example to say that sound is vibration is when you touch your througt when humming

Experiment one

How far will acan we see sounf

We did an experiment to see how far can we see sound

And we used

 Long bottomed bowl


 Food wrap cling film
 Uncooked rice
 Metal pot
 Metal spoon

How did we do it

To make this experiment fair test we used

 The same amount of rice


 The same pot
 The same spoon
 The same bowl
 Same cling wrap
 We changed the distance ( ten centimeter every time )
In our experiment we found out that we can see sound at a maximum distance of 31 centimeter

Objectives
1. To find how sound travels
2. To know how far waves can go
3. Different types

Sound is transmitted through gases, liquids, solids, and plasma as longitudinal waves. The
energy carried by longitudinal waves, also known as compression waves, converts back and
forth between potential energy of the compression and the kinetic energy of the oscillations
within the medium. This displacement of the sound wave results in oscillation.

There are many modern and classic technological achievements that take advantage of sound
waves. Doctors and scientists use sound waves to see into our bodies. Stethoscopes are used
to amplify sound waves so doctors can listen to our heartbeats while ultrasounds are used to
create images of our hearts and stomachs. Other equipment that is used for generating,
manipulating, or amplifying sound waves include hearing aids, musical instruments, and sonar
systems.
