Wavelength
In this video Paul Andersen explains how the wavelength is the distance between oscillations in a wave. In a longitudinal wave this might be the distance between areas of compression. In a transverse wave it might be the distance between...

Transverse and Longitudinal Waves
In this video Paul Andersen compares and contrasts transverse and longitudinal waves. Waves carry energy through oscillations. In transverse waves the oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of the wave and in longitudinal they...

Measuring Music
We use a sounding board called a sonometer to investigate how the pitch of sound changes when the length of wire being plucked changes. We change the position of a moveable bridge to change the length of the wire and discover that...

Bell in a Vacuum
We look at how a vacuum affects how sound travels. An alarm is set off and placed under a bell jar. The air is removed from the jar to create a vacuum. We can still see the hammer of the alarm clock moving, but cannot hear the sound....
