What are the sources of light and sound?

Heat, light, and sound are all forms of energy. Heat can be transferred by radiation, conduction and con- vection. Visible light can be produced, reflected, refracted, and separated into light of various colors. Sound is created by vibration and cannot travel through a vacuum.

How does light make sound?

Light is made up of photons, which have no mass and therefore no weight. But their gravitational field allows them to bend light and that can sound like mass. Photons also carry electromagnetic fields, so this allows them to make sound by interacting with objects that have mass.

How does light and sound travel through different materials?

Sound waves are also different in the sense that they travel through any type of substance, whether solid, liquid or gas, whereas light travels best through empty space. When sound waves hit materials, they cause vibrations. These vibrations are either high frequency or low frequency.

What is common in sound and light?

Sound and light are similar in that both are forms of energy that travel in waves. They both have properties of wavelength, freqency and amplitude. Sound is a form of mechanical energy caused by vibrations of matter. Light is electromagnetic energy caused by interacting electric and magnetic fields.

What are examples of materials that make sound?

Students who demonstrate understanding can: 1-PS4-1. Plan and conduct investigations to provide evidence that vibrating materials can make sound and that sound can make materials vibrate. [Clarification Statement: Examples of vibrating materials that make sound could include tuning forks and plucking a stretched string.

What are the lessons in light and sound?

These lessons were designed to allow students to make their own predictions and observations while testing and recording their findings. Our lessons were planned using the 5-E Learning Cycle Model. Each lesson is broken down into the following categories; Engage, Explore, Explain, Extend and Evaluate.

How are sound and light related to each other?

#1: Sound travels. #2: Light reflects off smooth, shiny, flat surfaces in a regular reflection pattern. #2: Sound can be reflected (bounce). #3: Light reflects off rough, shiny, uneven surfaces in a diffuse reflection pattern. #3: Sound can be absorbed (not bounce).

Who are the teachers for light and sound?

First Grade Next Generation Science Standards TBA ISD June 2013 Created by: Sue Bishop, Erika Olvey and Annie Grammer Teacher Introduction to Waves: Light and Sound During the study of light and sound waves students will develop their science skills through inquiry, prediction, observation, exploration, discussion and recording.
