Elite Private School | 06 I would like to share some Longitudinal waves are waves statements of the students where the particles are moving Virtual who have participated in the parallel to the wave direction. virtual science fair. Now I want to speak about the production of sound waves. Science Fair Hello everyone, my name is Sound waves are longitudinal Hawaa Alhosani and I am from waves and are produced by class 11GB. Today, I want to give vibrations that spread through you a brief explanation about mediums such as solid, liquid the project I have done about or gas. Finally, I want to speak sound waves. I started this about three applications of project by defining waves and sound waves in the UAE. The their types. A wave can be first one is the new sound described as a vibration about based payment system a rest position that transfers produced by the First Abu energy between stores. The Anas Abbasi Dhabi Bank, this system two types of waves are Physics, Chemistry and MS Science enables contactless payment transverse waves and and communication between Subject Lead longitudinal waves. Transverse Elective Subjects Lead and Live waves are waves in which the devices. The second Sessions DL Coordinator particles motion is application is the use of sound perpendicular to the direction waves for medical purposes that the wave travels. such as looking at a baby in a Elite Private School | 08 womb. The third application is One of the best examples of pitch. Conversely, if it moves that sound waves can be used interference is demonstrated away from you, the frequency to produce music.

SONAR studying the topic of sound uses sound propagation to waves this year. Furthermore, I I am Shahista Raniya Mazher help ships and submarines want to thank Ms. Safa for all Sultan from 11GA, navigate the oceans and seas. her hard work this year and I The title of my project is Sound SONAR can also be used to want to show her my waves. explore the depths of the appreciation for everything she Sound travels in mechanical ocean and the various objects did. waves.
