00:11 this is Nate playing the piano . You can hear
00:17 the music coming from the piano even though you are
00:19 not standing next to it and you can hear my
00:22 voice even though you cannot see me . But have
00:25 you ever wondered what sound is ? We can hear
00:29 the sound . But is there a way of looking
00:31 at it even though you can't see sound in real
00:35 life sound is produced by air particles moving back and
00:39 forth . Here in this cartoon , each circle represents
00:43 an air particle . As the particles move back and
00:47 forth , the particles form dense regions where a lot
00:50 of air particles are close together . The motion of
00:53 these particles causes the dense regions to move in the
00:56 direction that the sound is moving . In this case
00:59 the sound is moving to the right . The frequency
01:03 of the sound describes how many dense regions reach our
01:05 air during a given time , Usually a second .
01:10 The closer the dense regions are to each other ,
01:13 the higher the frequency of the sound and we hear
01:16 it as a higher pitched sound mm For low pitched
01:23 sounds , the dense regions are farther apart . In
01:31 fact , we can show how frequency changes over time
01:35 . In a picture . In this picture , the
01:38 high frequencies are on the top and the low frequencies
01:41 are on the bottom . We can also use this
01:44 to track how the frequencies change . Yeah , okay
01:51 . This picture is called a spectrogram . We can
01:55 use spectrograms to look at frequencies in different kinds of
01:58 sounds like the sounds in my speech . Now ,
02:01 I'm going to record innate saying something . Let's take
02:05 a look at the spectrogram when Nate says E .
02:08 E . These horizontal lines are the frequencies in the
02:13 vowel Nate made . Those frequencies are called the performance
02:17 of a vowel . These four men are in different
02:20 positions on the spectrogram for different vowels . Now ,
02:25 let's see what happens when Nate says something different like
02:28 ah uh when Nate said ah the two lowest formats
02:36 were closer together . When Nate said E The two
02:40 lowest form ants were farther apart . That's how you
02:43 can tell the difference between vowels now . So numb
02:47 is going to say the same vowels . E Uh
02:52 huh . Look at where the formats are . Now
02:57 . The formats are in a different place because cinemas
03:00 voice is different from Neitz . However , you can
03:03 still tell that Sona was saying e here because the
03:07 formats are far apart and here . So name was
03:10 saying ah because the formats are close together now ,
03:15 let's see what happens if we have a chipmunk saying
03:17 the same things , he needs to come here and
03:20 use your talents to sound like a chipmunk and oh
03:30 you can see how it follows the same pattern .
03:33 The Formance . E . Are far apart and the
03:36 four months in ah are close together . These programs
03:41 are cool . Hey , why do I still sounds
03:44 like a chipmunk while Nate is figuring that out .
03:48 Let's review the words we've learned . They have really
03:51 helped us understand what sound is all about . Frequency
03:55 , describes how lower high the sound is . Which
03:57 depends on the spacing of the dense air regions in
04:01 the sound wave . Spectrogram , a tool that lets
04:04 you look at the frequencies that make up a sound
04:07 . It also lets you see how the frequencies change
04:10 as the sound changes for months the performance of a
04:14 vow are the frequencies that make up the vow .
04:17 Although the formats are positioned differently in the spectrogram for
04:20 different voices , the pattern of the format is generally
04:24 unique to each wall . So now I can use
04:29 a spectrogram to see all the frequencies in my voice
04:32 . I'm going to do that right now . I
04:35 do there there there there there there there there there
04:47 there we get to , wow ! We can we
04:50 get
