    2. Voice of which of the following is likely to have a minimum frequency?


    (a) Baby girl (b) Baby boy (c) A man (d) A woman

    3. To detect the obstacles in their path, bats produce:


    (a) Infrasonic waves (b) Ultrasonic waves (c) Radio waves

    4. The hearing range of human ear is


    (a) 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz (b) less than 20 Hz (c) more than 20,000 Hz

    5. Loudness of sound is determined by


    (a) pitch (b) frequency (c) amplitude (d) time period

    II. In the following statements, tick ‘T’ against those which are true and ‘F’ against those
    which are false.

    1. Sound cannot travel in a vacuum.


    2. The number of oscillations per second of a vibrating object is called its time period.
    3. If the amplitude of vibration is large, the sound is feeble.
    4. For human ears, the audible range is 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz.
    5. The lower the frequency of vibration, the higher is the pitch.
    6. Unwanted or unpleasant sound is termed as music.
    7. Noise pollution may cause partial hearing impairment.

    III. Answer the following questions:


    1. A pendulum oscillates 40 times in 4 seconds. Find its time period and frequency.
    2. How does sound become noise?
    3. What are the factors on which pitch of a sound depend?
    4. Sound cannot travel through vacuum. Why?
    *Level II

    12. A plastic ruler is held near the rotating wheel of a bicycle, such that it produces
    sound every time the spoke of the wheel strikes it. If 20 clicks are produced in 0.4s,
    calculate the frequency of sound produced.
    13. A pendulum oscillates 40 times in 4 seconds. Find its time period and
    frequency.
    12. Explain in what way noise pollution is harmful to humans.
