Sample Questions

1multiple correct

Which of the following are examples of longitudinal waves?

Show answer

Sound waves in air, Sound waves in water, Sound waves in solids

Sound waves are longitudinal waves where particles oscillate parallel to the direction of wave propagation. This occurs in all media - solids, liquids, and gases. Light waves and surface water waves are transverse waves.

2true false

Sound cannot travel through vacuum.

Show answer

True

Sound requires a medium (solid, liquid, or gas) to travel. It cannot propagate through vacuum because there are no particles to carry the vibrations. This is why there is no sound in space.

3multiple correct

Which factors affect the speed of sound?

Show answer

Nature of the medium, Temperature of the medium, Density of the medium

Speed of sound depends on the nature, temperature, and density of the medium. It travels fastest in solids, slower in liquids, and slowest in gases. Higher temperature increases speed. Frequency and amplitude do not affect the speed of sound.

4multiple choice

Compressions in a sound wave are regions of:

Show answer

High pressure and high density

Compressions are regions where particles are crowded together, resulting in high pressure and high density. Rarefactions are regions of low pressure and low density where particles are spread apart.
