  1. pressure time (ms) The Waveform • Microphone converts pressure to voltage • Plot pressure vs. time • Sound always has an oscillating pressure vs. time

  2. period T = 2.2 ms T = 7 ms Compare Waveforms f = 1/T = 460 Hz f = 1/T = 140 Hz

  3. period amplitude pure tone = sine wave • Definite period single, constant frequency • Described by only two numbers: f, A What creates a sine wave? How can we describe more complicated sounds?
