Physics: Microphone
$ 37.00

Captures sound, so students can study frequency. It's also great for speed-of-sound experiments.

The Microphone can be used for a variety of activities with sound waves:
· Demonstrate how the wave pattern changes when frequency and amplitudeare changed
· Compare the waveforms from various musical instruments
· Have students capture the waveform of the sound of a tuning fork and model the sine wave using a mathematical function
· Measure the speed of sound by using reflected sound waves in a tube
· Demonstrate beat patterns
· Determine the period and then the frequency of a sound by measuring the time between peaks on the waveform
· Can interface with a T1 graphic calculator

We need 8 of these. When you purchase this item, your money will be deposited in the NEHS Science Dept. bank account and equipment will be purchased on your behalf. Thank you.
