The Loudspeaker (Physics of Technology Series)

A module on sound waves and wave models. Treats wave properties of sound, traveling and standing waves, sound intensity, sound radiation, beats, and forces in the loudspeaker. Although the module has no prerequisites, the material on the operation of a loudspeaker might be more easily understood by students who have previously encountered magnetic fields. Either THE LOUDSPEAKER or THE GUITAR will provide adequate coverage of sound. Part of the Physics of Technology program, a 27-module introduction to physics at a pre-calculus level. The American Institute of Physics coordinated this program in the 1970s, with modules created by Florissant Valley Community College, Oak Ridge Associated Universities, the State University of New York at Binghamton, and TERC. From the Instructor’s Manual : This module introduces a number of basic concepts regarding the nature and behavior of sound waves. The student also obtains a working knowledge of technical matters pertaining to sound production, including the physics underlying loudspeaker design and construction. A motivating factor for many students will be the discussion of loudspeaker specifications from a physics standpoint, by which a bette
