    Physics on Khan Academy: Physics is the study of the basic principles that govern the physical world around us. We'll start by looking at motion itself. Then, we'll learn about forces, momentum, energy, and other concepts in lots of different physical situations. To get the most out of physics, you'll need a solid understanding of algebra and a basic understanding of trigonometry.
    About Khan Academy: Khan Academy offers practice exercises, instructional videos, and a personalized learning dashboard that empower learners to study at their own pace in and outside of the classroom. We tackle math, science, computer programming, history, art history, economics, and more. Our math missions guide learners from kindergarten to calculus using state-of-the-art, adaptive technology that identifies strengths and learning gaps. We've also partnered with institutions like NASA, The Museum of Modern Art, The California Academy of Sciences, and MIT to offer specialized content.

    THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR WHEN I GOOGLED IT! THANK GOD! I needed an animated visual representation of a sound wave so bad with parts labeled. I was scratching my head reading the book trying to understand what the wavelength was. Thank you!!!

      Lol, same here, I hate remembering something without understanding exactly how it works by imagining it visually, too bad almost everything in the book is dry theory :/

    i have watched videos and online lectures for like 3h now...
    and seriously this is the BEST explanation about sound properties there is.
    thank you so much sir, i love you. i would walk your dog sir, wash your cloths, bet up the bullies, make sure u get promotion, give you the lottery, and much more. YOU Sir ARE THE BEST of RUclips, ofc After Dr.Najeeb :)

    in one of your video you said that waves does not travel faster if you scream louder . well that is confusing because you said that density cause inertia and the wave has to over come this inertia which slows it down. if I pack more energy in a sound wave over the same area wouldn't that more easily overcome the inertia thus traveling much faster .

    4:00: The distance between two groups of compressed air (which is wavelength) is far greater than the sum of the molecule's displacements, which doesn't make sense. It should be equal to the sum of the molecule's displacements/amplitudes.

    When in a instrument, you travel from an A note to a B note, fundamentally you are only slightly increasing the frequency of this note? Or does A4 440Hz and B4 493Hz differ more than in just the frequency? Do they differ as well in the wave shape? Or for a given instrument the wave shape of all notes if fundamentally the same, but the notes played the instrument differ exclusively on their frequency?

  • @haniii3
    @haniii3 4 года назад

    possibly dumb question but since the sine graph can be used to show the movement of molecules does this mean that square or saw or triangle waves alter how those molecules actually move? like a square waves molecules dont actually move that fast and then stay in place do they?

  • @Ravenwest19
    @Ravenwest19 7 лет назад +2

    Why sound waves traveling in all directions ??
    Let's look on loudspeaker. If it creates sound waves by pushing and pulling the air in front of it , how we can hear sound when we are behind the loudspeaker or above/ under ?

    • @haiderriaz8957
      @haiderriaz8957 7 лет назад +3

      the speed of sound is 330m/s .. imagine yourself traveling at that speed and hitting walls and objects .. how much time it would take? for us to hear that deflected sound wave. might be less than 0.1s which is unnoticeable by our brain. at a small place you hear sound bouncing off clear which seems like sound is directed at you but its not actually.. but if you increase the area of a place too much you will hear echo .. ever tried listening to music by pointing phone speaker at your face and then back to the original position.. there is a change of sound .. ever heard of dopplers effect? imagine sound waves coming outta speaker in a circular manner .. sorry I couldn't explain in a proper way.. I kinda messed it up.. coz I was actually studying waves right now in physics .. so everything was just jumbled up in my mind

    • @Ravenwest19
      @Ravenwest19 7 лет назад

      Haider .R.K I should try to listen something in clear field. Although, I think diffraction takes place here too.

    • @haiderriaz8957
      @haiderriaz8957 7 лет назад +1

      yeah it does. cause all that i said was mostly related to a controlled environment... if we were to apply physics out in real world then we would fuck up our mind.. thats why the scientists also hang out on beach with girl drinking beer and not worrying bout anything :P xD

    • @gorax6087
      @gorax6087 6 лет назад

      it travels in every direction cause the molecules of the air or the walls are everywhere
