Welcome to physics Waves and Sound Review Jeopardy Game
First, person each needs to make a board.  Get a colored piece of paper, turn it sideways and
make a grid that takes up the entire piece of paper that looks like this:
Wave Guts
I love vocabulary!
Sound
Waves in Music
Fun with
Equations!
The test is tomorrow!
It covers all the material- vocabulary, facts, and calculations
from Chapters 12 and 13. Make sure to study!
Please click to read the rules for playing the review Jeopardy game. 
1) Anyone can pick the questions as you are both playing all of the questions.
2) Pick a box and read the clue. You both put your own answer in the form
of a question on your answer sheet being careful not to let the other person
see your paper. When you are both ready, click to get the actual answer.
If you get the answer right, write the dollar amount in the appropriate box
and circle it. You can both get it right and get the money.
If you get the answer wrong, put an X through the box. You don’t go negative.
3) If you both get the answer wrong, the money goes to your physics teacher.
Have one person keep a tally for her.  She cannot play the Daily Double or
Final Jeopardy.  If she wins, neither of you get a prize.
4) There is one daily double on the board. You can bet up to as much money
as you have. If you get that question wrong, you go negative whatever
amount you bet.
5) You may or may not finish all of the questions on the board. Near the end
of the hour, it will be time to play Final Jeopardy. For Final Jeopardy if
you do not have any money you cannot play. You can bet as much as you
have, but if you get the question wrong you will go negative.
6) The student with the most money at the end gets a prize . You will both turn
in your Jeopardy board at the end of the hour for up to 3 points extra
credit points towards your test. Make sure to show your work. You will
not earn extra credit for just writing the correct answers if there is a
calculation involved.
7) Make sure you understand how to play! This will help you on the test
tomorrow!

What is 18 m/s?
Since the equation for the speed of sound is 330 m/s + 0.6 oC, you
just need to take 30 x 0.6= 18 m/s
Sound $200
A 70 decibel sound is perceived to
be approximately this many
times louder than a 20 decibel
sound
Click when you are both ready and the box below will disappear to
reveal the correct answer.
What is 32?
Back to game
board
The loudness of a sound approximately doubles every 10
decibels, so
2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 32 or 25 = 32.

Sound $400
In the Speed of Sound experiment, if the same
tuning fork was used but the water in the
graduated cylinder was warmer, the
wavelength would have
a) been longer than if the water was cool.
b) been shorter than if the water was cool.
c) not changed.
Click when you are both ready and the box below will disappear to
reveal the correct answer.
Back to game
board
What is a) been longer than if the water was cool?
v=fl
The frequency would be the same. If the water was warmer, the air above it
would be warmer so v would increase meaning that l would also have to
increase.
Sound $500

fork if the speed of sound
was 348 m/s
Click when you are both ready and the box below will disappear to
reveal the correct answer.
Back to game
board
What is 0.33 meter?
Use v=fl to find l. Then you will need to divide that by 4
because the fundamental frequency occurs at ¼ of the
wavelength since the tube was closed at one end by the water.

What is 411 Hertz?
v = 330 m/s + 0.6(24.2oC) = 345 m/s, but sound travels
4.5 times faster in water so v=4.5 x 345 m/s
Then use v=fl
