Sound
1
Sound
• When an object vibrates, it creates sound
waves.
• Sound waves are compressional waves.
• The compression moves away as these
molecules collide with other molecules in air.
• A rarefaction is formed where the molecules
are farther apart.
• This series of compressions and rarefactions
is the sound wave that you hear.
Sound

Sound
• The material in which a sound
wave moves is called a medium.
• Sound waves travel in solids, liquids, and
other gases as a vibrating object transfers
energy to the particles in the material.
Sound

Sound
• The speed of a sound
wave in a medium
depends on the type
of substance and
whether it is a solid,
liquid, or gas.
• Sound travels
slowest in gases
and fastest in
solids.
Sound

Amplitude and Energy of Sound
Waves
• The amount of energy a wave carries
corresponds to its amplitude.
• More energy is transferred to the medium
when the particles of the medium are
forced closer together in the compressions
and spread farther apart in the rarefactions.

Intensity and Loudness
• The amount of energy transferred by a sound
wave through a certain area each second is
the intensity of the sound wave.
• Loudness is the human perception of sound
intensity.
Sound

Intensity and Loudness
• Each unit on the scale for sound intensity is
called a decibel.
Sound

Pitch and Frequency
• Pitch is the human perception of the
frequency of sound waves.
• Frequency is
a measure of
how many
wavelengths
pass a
particular
point each
second.
Sound
1
Pitch and Frequency
• Frequency is measured in hertz (Hz).
• A healthy human ear can hear sound
waves with frequencies from about 20
Hz to 20,000 Hz.
• Sound frequencies above 20,000 Hz
are called ultrasonic waves.
• Infrasonic, or subsonic, waves have
frequencies below 20 Hz.
Sound
1
Doppler Effect
• The change in pitch or frequency due
to the relative motion of a wave
source is called the Doppler effect.

A Moving Source of Sound
Sound

A Moving Listener
• You also can hear the Doppler effect
when you are moving past a sound
source that is standing still.
• The Doppler effect happens any time
the source of a sound is changing
position relative to the listener.

Using Sound
• Echolocation is the process of locating
objects by emitting sounds and detecting
the sound waves that reflect back.
• Sonar is a system that uses the reflection of
underwater sound waves to detect objects.
• Reflected ultrasonic waves are used
to examine different body parts.

Question 3
In which of the following environments would
sound waves not travel?
A. at altitudes of 10,000 – 15,000 m
B. in solid aluminum
C. on the Moon
D. under water
Section Check

Answer
The answer is C. Sound waves require a medium
through which to travel. So, sound waves cannot
travel through empty space.
Reflection and Refraction of Light
2
The Interaction of
Light and Matter
Absorption, Transmission,
and Reflection
• The opaque
material in this
candleholder only
absorbs and reflects
light—no light
passes through it.
Reflection and Refraction of Light
2
Absorption, Transmission,
and Reflection
• Materials that allow some light to pass
through them, like the material of this
candleholder are
described as
translucent.
Reflection and Refraction of Light
2
Absorption, Transmission,
and Reflection
• Transparent materials, such as this
candleholder transmit almost all the light
striking them,
so you can see
objects clearly
through them.
Reflection and Refraction of Light
2
Reflection of Light
Regular and Diffuse Reflection
• A smooth, even surface such as a pane of glass
produces a sharp image by reflecting parallel
light waves in only one direction.
• Reflection of light waves from a
smooth surface is regular reflection.
• To cause a regular reflection, the
roughness of a surface must be less
than the wavelengths it reflects.
Reflection and Refraction of Light
2
Regular and Diffuse Reflection
• Reflection of light from a rough surface
is diffuse reflection.
• Diffuse reflection is a type of scattering
that occurs when light waves traveling in
one direction are made to travel in many
different directions.
Reflection and Refraction of Light
2
Refraction of Light
• Refraction is
caused by a
change in the
speed of a
wave when it
passes from
one material
to another.
Reflection and Refraction of Light
2
Refraction of Light
• Index of refraction is the ratio of the speed
of light in a vacuum to the speed of light in
the material.
• The index of refraction indicates how much
the speed of light is reduced in the material
compared to its speed in empty space.
• The larger the index of refraction, the
more light is slowed down in the material.
Reflection and Refraction of Light

Refraction of Light
• White light, such as sunlight, is made up
of light waves with range of wavelengths.
• Prism refracts the
light twice—once
when it enters the
prism and again
when it leaves the
prism.
Reflection and Refraction of Light
2
Refraction of Light
• The longer wavelengths of light are slowed
less and are bent the least.
• As a result, the
different colors
are separated
when they emerge
from the prism.
Reflection and Refraction of Light

Mirages
• Mirages result when the air at ground level is
much warmer or cooler than the air above.
Reflection and Refraction of Light
2
Mirages
• The density of air increases as air cools
and light waves move slower in cooler
air than in warmer air.
• Light waves are refracted as they pass through
air layers with different temperatures.

Question 1
What happens to light waves that strike
an object?
Answer
Light waves that strike objects can be
absorbed, reflected, or transmitted.
Section Check

Question 2
What is the difference between refraction
and reflection?
Answer
Refraction occurs if a light wave changes speed
in moving from one material to another.
Reflection occurs when light waves are returned
or thrown back from a surface.

materials both allow some light to pass through.
Mirrors, Lenses, and the Eye
3
Light Rays
Mirrors
• A mirror is any surface that produces a
regular reflection.
Plane Mirrors
• A flat smooth mirror is a plane mirror.
Mirrors, Lenses, and the Eye
3
Plane Mirrors
• Light rays from a light
source strike you.
• Every point that is struck
by the light rays reflects
these rays so they travel
outward in all directions.
• Light rays are reflected
from the mirror back to
your eyes.
Mirrors, Lenses, and the Eye
3
Virtual and Real Images
• Plane mirrors always form virtual images.
• If light rays from an object pass through
the location of the image, the image is
called the real image.
• If the surface of a
mirror is curved
inward, it is called a
concave mirror.
Mirrors, Lenses, and the Eye
3
Virtual and Real Images
• The image formed by a concave mirror
depends on the location of the object relative
to the focal point.
Mirrors, Lenses, and the Eye
3
Virtual and Real Images
• An object between one and two focal lengths
from a concave mirror is real, inverted, and
larger than the object.
• An object closer than one focal length from a
concave mirror produces a virtual image that
is upright and larger than the object.
Mirrors, Lenses, and the Eye
3
Convex Mirrors
• A mirror that curves outward like the back
of a spoon is called a convex mirror.
• Reflected rays diverge and never meet,
so a convex mirror
forms only a
virtual image.
• The image also
is upright and
smaller than the
actual object is.
Mirrors, Lenses, and the Eye
3
Lenses
• A lens is a transparent object with at
least one curved surface that causes
light rays to refract.
Convex Lenses
• A convex lens is thicker in the middle
than at the edges.
Mirrors, Lenses, and the Eye
3
Convex Lenses
• Light rays are refracted toward
the center of the lens.
• All light rays
are refracted
so they pass
through a
single point,
which is the
focal point of
the lens.
Mirrors, Lenses, and the Eye

Convex Lenses
• Lenses with flatter sides have longer focal
lengths.
Mirrors, Lenses, and the Eye

Concave Lenses
• A concave lens is thinner in the middle
and thicker at the edges.
• Light rays that pass through a concave
lens bend away from the optical axis.
Mirrors, Lenses, and the Eye
3
The Human Eye
• Light enters your eye through a transparent
covering on your eyeball called the cornea.
• The cornea
causes light
rays to bend
so that they
converge.
• Light then
passes through
the pupil.
Mirrors, Lenses, and the Eye
3
The Human Eye
• Behind the pupil is a flexible convex lens.
• The retina is the inner lining of your eye,
containing
light sensitive
cells that
convert an
image into
electrical
signals.
Mirrors, Lenses, and the Eye
3
Brightness and Intensity
• The human eye can adjust to the brightness
of the light that strikes it.
• Light intensity is the amount of light energy
that strikes a certain area each second.
• Brightness is the human perception of light
intensity.
• Eyes respond to bright light by decreasing the
size of your pupil.

Correcting Vision Problems
• If you can see distant objects clearly but can’t
bring nearby objects into focus, then you are
farsighted.
Mirrors, Lenses, and the Eye
3
Correcting Vision Problems
• The eyeball might be too short or the lens
isn’t curved enough to form a sharp image
of nearby objects on the retina.
Mirrors, Lenses, and the Eye
3
Nearsightedness
• Eyes cannot form a sharp image on the
retina of an object that is far away.
• The image is formed in front of the retina.

Why Objects Have Color
• White light is a blend of all colors of visible
light.
• Black is the absence of visible light.

Colored Filters
• A filter is a transparent material that transmits
one or more colors of light but absorbs all
others.
• The color
of a filter is
the color of
the light
that it
transmits.

Seeing Color
• The retina is made up of two types of cells
that absorb light.
• A cone enables you to distinguish colors and
detailed shapes of objects.

Cones and Rods
• Your eyes have three types of cones.
• Red cones respond to mostly red and yellow
light.
• Green cones respond to mostly yellow and
green.

Cones and Rods
• Blue cones respond to mostly blue and violet
light.
• A rod is sensitive to dim light and enables
you to see at night.
• Rod cells do not enable you to see colors.

Color Blindness
• If cone cells do not function properly, you
might not be able to distinguish certain
colors.
• This condition is called
color blindness.
• The most common form
of color blindness makes
it difficult to distinguish
between red and green.

Mixing Colors
• A pigment is a colored material that is used
to change the color of other substances.
• Red, green, and blue are the primary colors
of light.
• Mixing the primary colors in different
proportions can produce the colors you see.
Light and Color

Mixing Pigments
• You can make any pigment color by mixing
different amounts of the three primary
pigments—magenta, cyan, and yellow.
• Pigments both
absorb and reflect
a range of colors.

Mixing Pigments
• The area where the colors overlap appears
to be black because the three blended
primary pigments absorb all the primary
colors of light.
