THE MUSIC OF SOUND
THE MUSIC OF SOUND Sound : Sound is a form of energy which produces sensation of hearing in our ears. Production of sound : Sound is produce due ti vibrations of an object such as a stretched membrane or a string under tension. Waves: A wave is a disturbance movng through a medium when the particles of the medium set neighbouring particles in motion .A wave motion is a mode of transmission of energy through the medium .A wave in ehich the particled of the medium oscillate (vibrate)about their mean positions in a direction perpendicular to the direction of wvae propagation is called a transverse wave . A wave in which the particles of the medium oscillate (vibrate ) about their mean posiotions in a direction parallel to the direction of wave propagation is called a longitudinal wave. The particles do not move from one part to another part of the medium. Propagation of sound : Sound requires a medium for propagation .i.e. ,it cannot travel through vaccum. Sound propagetes in the fo...
