Sound Explanation


Intro

Our inquiry topic for term two is about sound. You can make sound with your body by clapping, stomping and whistling with your lips. Sound happens quickly. When you hear something like a car door slam sound waves travels to your ear and goes to your brain and once you hear that same sound again you will be able to remember that sound.

Sound wave travels to our ear and then to our brain. Sound happens quickly. The sound that we hear will be in our brain, so when we hear it again we will be able to remember that sound. Vibration is made when something is moved. Sound makes the air move so the is sound wave.

Once something is hit, it vibrates through the air and so that is called sound wave, sound wave is something you can’t see but the sound wave travels to your ear so you will be able to hear. All sounds start with vibrations. The sounds I make begin with vibrations in my throat. Strong bands of power called vocal cords start shaking and moving.
Sound wave is move in all directions, bouncing off, moving through or being suck up by anything that gets in the way like trees, rocks anything. All the bouncing can change. The back and forth vibration create waves.  Vibration: sound is made once you hit something. Sound wave: sound wave begins once you talk or move. You can also make sound. You can make all kind of sound by moving your body and you can use your voice to sing, whisper or shout. You can also stomp your feet and clap your hand. The back and forth motion of the vibration create waves so that means the back and forth motion is creating sound wave.   


Conclusion
Imagine if nobody can hear what would it be like it will probably be really boring to me. My class and I had tried out a telephone cup experiment it was really phone and when we talk to each other the sound wave travels through the string and then to your ear, but with different strings and we were able to hear each other.
