Properties of Sound Waves Are longitudinal waves Require a medium to travel through The type of medium influences the speed
of the sound wave Sound travels faster at higher
temperatures Sound waves can also be affected by
humidity and air pressure

Experimental Formula for the Speed of Sound in Air
Where v is the speed of sound in air in m/s
T is the air temperature in degrees Celsius
(Formula based on analysing speed-temperature data)

Sound Intensity Humans describe how loud a sound is by
its sound intensity.
Sound intensity is the amount of sound energy being transferred per unit area (Units: )
The larger the amplitude of a sound wave the more energy it is transferring and the louder the sound you will hear.

Sound Intensity Sound intensity levels is often described
in decibels (dB).
Decibels are a measure of sound level and uses a logarithmic scale to show the different in sound intensity.
Loudness levels are dependent on the distance from the source of the sound.

Further away from an object the quieter the sound becomes.
This is because the amount of energy carried is the same but the area the sound travels is greater. Thus decreasing the sound intensity.

Hearing damage can occur when exposed to loud sounds for extended periods of time.
Exposure time depends on sound intensity.
Important to wear hearing protection when exposed to loud noises

Mach Number Mach number is the ratio of the airspeed of an object to the local speed of sound The local speed of sound may vary due to surrounding air temperatures Described by Austrian physicist Ernst Mach Mach 1 = speed of sound
