  2. Learning Objective Learning Objective 7Ps.01 Describe the vibration of particles in a sound wave and explain why sound does not travel in a vacuum. © 2025 CuriousEd.ai

  3. Exploring Sound Waves • Two stations are set up. Visit station 1 and 2 and note your observations. • Instructions for station 1: • First place the tuning fork near to the ball so that it touches the ball and note your observation. • Now strike the tuning fork firmly on a rubber pad and bring it close to the ping pong ball suspended in the clamp stand. • Observe what happens to the ping pong ball. © 2025 CuriousEd.ai

  4. Exploring Sound Waves Instructions for station 2: • Strike the tuning fork again on a rubber pad. • Submerge the fork into the bowl of water. • Observe what happens to the water. © 2025 CuriousEd.ai

  5. Exploring Sound Waves 1. What happened to the ping pong ball when the tuning fork came near? Station 1 2. Did it move or stay still? 3. What could be causing that movement? 1. What did you observe in station 2? 2. What could be causing that movement? Station 2 3. What do these observations tell us about vibrations and sound production? © 2025 CuriousEd.ai

  6. Exploring Sound Waves • Sound is produced by vibrating objects, such as the tuning fork. When the fork vibrates, it causes the air particles around it to vibrate as well. This vibration creates a chain reaction that moves through the air as a sound wave. • Vibration of particles does not mean the particles themselves travel with the wave; instead, they oscillate back and forth, transferring energy from one to another. © 2025 CuriousEd.ai
