another object vibrating at the (2) _______________________.
(3) _______________ is a reflected sound wave while (4)_______________is a repeated reflected sound
(5) _______________ is the bending of waves around a small opening and around edges of barrier.
(6) The meeting or overlapping of waves is called _______________.
Refraction is the change in direction and (7) ____________ of waves as they enter another medium at
an angle.
(8) _______________ is a pleasing sound produced by (9) ____________________ while
(10)_____________ is unpleasant sound.

II. Write T if the statement is correct and if not write the correct word/s in order the make the
statement true.
_______________ 11. Waves are any disturbance that carries energy through medium.
_______________ 12. The pitch of the sound depends in the amplitude.
_______________ 13. Water waves are longitudinal waves.
_______________ 14. Loudness of sound depends in the energy applied.
_______________ 15. The unit of frequency is meter.
_______________ 16. Sound is the change in the frequency and pitch of a sound caused by the
movement of either the source or the listener or both.
_______________ 17. The frequency of a vibrating string is directly proportional to the square root of
the density on the string.
_______________ 18. The mouthpiece of the telephone converts energy from electrical to sound.
_______________ 19. Transmitter is a printed circuit card with components that couples the telephone
set to the telephone line.
_______________ 20. The shorter the length of the string, the lower the frequency.

_______________ 21. Holds the capsule for converting sound to electricity.
_______________ 22.It controls the circuit paths to the telephone set.
_______________ 23. Serves to announce incoming calls
_______________ 24. It converts electricity to sound.
_______________ 25. Produced sounds by striking, beating or hitting.

IV. Solve the following problems.
1. Compute for the speed of sound waves at 26C.
2. What is the frequency of sound waves with a wavelength of 40 m traveling in air at a speed of
370 m/s?
3. What tension will produce 420 vibrations per second in a guitar string stretched with a force of
8.0 Newtons to produce 255 vibrations per second?
4. How many vps will a similar wire, 5.0 mm in diameter make in a wire with a diameter of 2.2 mm
that makes 312 vps?
5. An AMBULANCE traveling at 50 m/s blows its siren at a constant 800 Hz. Determine the
frequency that will be perceived by a stationary observer both as
(a) approaches and (b) recedes
Take the speed of the sound to be 350 m/s.
