Ramona, a marine biologist, is modeling whale song sound waves using an oscilloscope. Based on the patterns your identify in the wave models, how does the frequency of the whale songs compare?

Both whale songs have a low frequency.

Whale A's song has a low frequency, and Whale B's song has a high frequency.

Whale A's song has a high frequency, and Whale B's song has a low frequency.

Both whale songs have a high frequency.

Ramona, a marine biologist, is modeling whale song sound waves using an oscilloscope. Based on the patterns your identify in the wave models, how does the pitch of the whale songs compare?

Both whale songs have a low pitch.

Whale A's song has a low pitch, and Whale B's song has a high pitch.

Whale A's song has a high pitch, and Whale B's song has a low pitch.

Both whale songs have a high pitch.

A sound technician is collecting data on sound waves while a musician plays a song on the piano. Based on the patterns you identify in the data, how can the musician increase the energy of the sound waves generated by her piano? Select all that apply.

She could increase the amplitude.

She could increase the sound waves.

She could increase the frequency.

She could increase the wavelength.

Ricardo is investigating the characteristics of certain sounds. He developed two models showing the same musical note. Based on the patterns in the models he developed, which sound wave has more energy?

Sound A has more energy, because the wave has a larger wavelength.

Sound A has more energy, because the wave has a larger amplitude.

Sound B has more energy, because the wave has a larger wavelength.

Sound B has more energy, because the wave has a larger amplitude.

Ricardo is investigating the characteristics of certain sounds. He developed two models showing the same musical note. Based on the patterns in the models he developed, which sound would be louder?

Sound A

Sound B

Oscar plays the drums in a band. He wants to soundproof his room so that his parents cannot hear him when he practices at night. He tries soundproofing his room with three different materials. Which material would be least effective at preventing the sound reaching his parents’ room?

The foam lining, because it absorbs sound

The bubble wrap lining, because it allows sound transmission

The cardboard lining, because it reflects the sound
