B1/B2- Science

SOUNDS GOOD!
Science Form 1b1/2

Sound travels to your ear

Sound

The air vibrates but does not travel from the alarm to the ear.
3

Large ears to collect sound

Our

ears are on the side of our heads.

Whales sing to each other.

Sound

travels through water.

6

Bush telephone game

Sound

8

Telephones -

Are like a sound system

The electrical signal is amplified A microphone changes sound to an electrical signal. A loudspeaker changes the electrical signal to sound.
9

Telephones -message travels through miles of wires as an electrical signal.

Mobile phones use radio

Sound - electrical signal - radio signal - electrical signal - sound

In one phone the sound is changed into an electrical signal then into a radio signal.

Mobile phone beacons Radio signal

In the second phone the radio signal is changed into an electrical signal then into sound.

Sound - electrical signal - radio signal - electrical signal - sound

13

What sound does this make?

How

does it make the sound?

14

Bells

What

sounds will they make?

15

Size matters!
Large

things make ___________ sounds things make ___________ sounds

16

Small

New words:

High pitch = high frequency Low pitch = low frequency

17

Size matters!

18

What else changes sounds?

How

do you tune a violin?

us try to make a string instrument.
19

Let

What have we learned?

Vibrating objects make sounds Sound needs a medium through which to travel air, water, string - - -

The medium vibrates but does not travel with the sound
Large vibrations make loud sounds - small vibrations make quiet sounds Large objects make low frequency sounds - small objects make high frequency sounds

In strings the frequency of the sound depends on the length, thickness, and tension.
20

Can you spot the baby?

Sound has lots of uses

21

Ultrasound is very, very high frequency sound.

It is used to see inside people - to see
babies

before they are born if a heart is working well blood flow

22

Knowledge about sound helps

Musical instrument design

and

playing them

Sailors find how deep the water is Building design

so

we hear sounds clearly in meetings so sound does not travel through walls

Sound systems for everyone

radio

- CD players
phones - iPods
