This interactive ThinkQuest website provides an introduction to the basic concepts of sound. Topics include the human ear and sound perception, the physics of sound, properties of sound waves, speed of sound, the Doppler Effect, and applications of sound used in real life. A timeline presents the history of sound-related technology and the interactive sound lab provides several applets to experiment with the topics discussed.
This resource is part of a Physics Front Topical Unit.
