How is sound perceived by us?
The distance between three consecutive crests of wave is 60 cm. If the waves are produced at the rate of 180/ min, calculate:
- wavelength
- time period
- wave velocity.
Name the factors on which the speed of sound depends.

Note is a sound
Draw a curve showing density or pressure variations with respect to distance for a disturbance produced by sound. Mark the position of compression and rarefaction on this curve. Also, define wavelengths and time periods using this curve.
