The study of sound provides you with many ways to develop first-hand knowledge of wave interactions and phenomena.  In this lesson, you will study several phenomena commonly associated with sound so that you can improve your understanding of waves.

Essential Questions:

• What type of wave is sound and how does wave terminology apply to sound waves?
• What is the Doppler Effect, and how does sound help us identify it?
• What two phenomena occur when sound waves combine in even or uneven wavelengths?
