11 You are observing a thunderstorm. In the distance, you see a flash of lightning. Five seconds later, you hear thunder. How far away was the lightning flash? a) 1 mile (1.6 km) b) 0.5 mile (0.8 km) c) 2 miles (3.2 km) d) 0.25 mile (0.4 km) e) 5 miles (8.0 km)

13 In a classroom demonstration, a physics professor breathes in a small amount of helium and begins to talk. The result is that the professor s normally low, baritone voice sounds quite high pitched. Which one of the following statements best describes this phenomena? a) The presence of helium changes the speed of sound in the air in the room, causing all sounds to have higher frequencies. b) The professor played a trick on the class by tightening his vocal cords to produces higher frequencies in his throat and mouth than normal. The helium was only a distraction and had nothing to do with it. c) The helium significantly alters the vocal chords causing the wavelength of the sounds generated to decrease and thus the frequencies increase. d) The wavelength of the sound generated in the professor s throat and mouth is only changed slightly, but since the speed of sound in helium is approximately 2.5 times larger than in air, therefore the frequencies generated are about 2.5 times higher.

15 A particle of dust is floating in the air approximately one half meter in front of a speaker. The speaker is then turned on produces a constant pure tone of 226 Hz, as shown. The sound waves produced by the speaker travel horizontally. Which one of the following statements correctly describes the subsequent motion of the dust particle, if any? a) The particle of dust will oscillate left and right with a frequency of 226 Hz. b) The particle of dust will oscillate up and down with a frequency of 226 Hz. c) The particle of dust will be accelerated toward the right and continue moving in that direction. d) The particle of dust will move toward the right at constant velocity. e) The dust particle will remain motionless as it cannot be affected by sound waves.

19 Natalie is a distance d in front of a speaker emitting sound waves. She then moves to a position that is a distance 2d in front of the speaker. By what percentage does the sound intensity decrease for Natalie between the two positions? a) 10 % b) 25 % c) 50 % d) 75% e) The sound intensity remains constant because it is not dependent on the distance.
