Which of the following statements is NOT true about sound waves? A. They are produced by vibrating objects. B. They are longitudinal waves. C. They can travel through a vacuum. D. They can be reflected. Explanation: Sound waves require a medium to propagate.2 / 202. The ceilings of concert halls are often curved to: A. Ensure even distribution of sound B. Reduce reverberation C. Increase the speed of sound D. Focus sound in a particular direction Explanation: The curved shape helps to reflect sound waves to all corners of the hall. 3 / 203. The quality or timbre of sound helps us to: A. Distinguish between sounds of the same frequency and amplitude but from different sources B. Determine the speed of sound C. Distinguish between sounds of different amplitudes D. Distinguish between sounds of different frequencies Explanation: Timbre allows us to differentiate between the sound of a guitar and a piano playing the same note. 4 / 204. The audible range of sound for human beings is: A. 20 Hz to 20000 Hz B. 25 kHz to 50 kHz C. 10 Hz to 10000 Hz D. 0 Hz to 10 Hz Explanation: This is the range of frequencies that most humans can hear. 5 / 205. Breaking kidney stones into fine grains using sound waves is called: A. Echocardiography B. Lithotripsy C. Ultrasonography D. Sonoluminescence Explanation: This technique uses focused ultrasound waves to break the stones. 6 / 206. Which of the following is NOT an application of ultrasound? A. Cleaning delicate objects B. Imaging internal organs C. Measuring the depth of the ocean D. Detecting earthquakes Explanation: This is typically done using sonar, which utilizes sound waves within the audible range. 7 / 207. Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of a sound wave? A. Speed B. Frequency C. Medium D. Amplitude Explanation: While sound needs a medium to travel, the medium itself is not a characteristic of the sound wave. The characteristics of a sound wave are frequency, amplitude, and speed. 8 / 208. A sound of single frequency is called: A. Note B. Pitch C. Noise D. Tone Explanation: A musical note is composed of multiple tones. 9 / 209. Echocardiography is a technique that uses: A. Ordinary sound waves B. Ultrasonic waves C. Infrasonic waves D. Light waves Explanation: It is used to create images of the heart by analyzing the reflected ultrasound waves. 10 / 2010. Sounds of frequencies below 20 Hz are called: A. Infrasound B. Supersonic sound C. Ultrasound D. Audible sound Explanation: Infrasound is used by some animals for communication. 11 / 2011. Ultrasonic waves are used to detect cracks in metal blocks because: A. They have a high frequency and can be reflected by small defects B. They are audible to humans C. They travel slower than ordinary sound waves D. They can bend around corners Explanation: Ordinary sound waves would diffract around the cracks, making them difficult to detect. 12 / 2012. The speed of sound in a medium is highest in: A. Vacuum B. Gases C. Liquids D. Solids Explanation: The closer the particles of the medium, the faster the sound wave can be transmitted. 13 / 2013. The pitch of a sound is determined by its: A. Speed B. Loudness C. Frequency D. Amplitude Explanation: A higher frequency corresponds to a higher pitch. 14 / 2014. Frequencies higher than 20 kHz are called: A. Audible sound B. Ultrasound C. Supersonic sound D. Infrasound Explanation: Ultrasound has various applications in medicine and industry. 15 / 2015. The loudness or softness of a sound is determined by its: A. Pitch B. Speed C. Frequency D. Amplitude Explanation: A larger amplitude corresponds to a louder sound. 16 / 2016. Ultrasound is used for: A. Cleaning objects B. Medical imaging C. Detecting cracks in metal blocks D. All of the above Explanation: Ultrasound has a wide range of applications due to its ability to travel along well-defined paths and penetrate various materials. 17 / 2017. Ultrasonography is used for: A. Breaking kidney stones B. Cleaning objects C. Detecting cracks in metal blocks D. Examining the foetus during pregnancy Explanation: It helps to detect any abnormalities in the foetus. 18 / 2018. Which of the following animals can hear ultrasound? A. Dogs B. Elephants C. Bats D. Humans Explanation: Bats use ultrasound for navigation and hunting. 19 / 2019. A hearing aid: A. Amplifies sound waves B. Reduces reverberation C. Produces sound D. Increases the speed of sound Explanation: It helps people with hearing loss to hear sounds more clearly. 20 / 2020. The SI unit of frequency is: A. Meter B. Second C. Pascal D. Hertz Explanation: Hertz (Hz) is equivalent to cycles per second.
