Sound Class 8 Extra Questions Short Answer Questions<\/h3>\n

Question 1.
\nA simple pendulum makes 20 oscillations in 40 seconds. What is the time period and frequency of its oscillation?
\nAnswer:
\nTime period = \\(\\frac{\\text { Time }}{\\text { No. of oscillation }}=\\frac{40}{20}\\) = 2 sec.
\nFrequency = \\(\\frac{\\text { No. of oscillation }}{\\text { Time }}=\\frac{20}{40}\\) = 0.5 Hz<\/p>\n

Question 2.
\nSonali heard sound of thunderbolt 5 second after she saw flash of lightning. How far is she from the place where lightning occurs? (speed of sound = 330 m\/s)
\nAnswer:
\nDistance of Sonali from the place of lightning = 330 \u00d7 5 = 1650 m<\/p>\n

Question 3.
\nWhat is frequency?
\nAnswer:
\nThe number of oscillations per second is called frequency. Its unit is hertz.<\/p>\n

Question 4.
\nWhat do you mean by oscillatory motion?
\nAnswer:
\nThe to and fro motion of an object is called vibration. This motion in both the direction from its mean position is called oscillatory motion.<\/p>\n

Question 5.
\nTwo astronauts are floating close to each other in space. Can they talk to each other without using any special device? Give reasons.
\nAnswer:
\nNo, because in space there is no atmosphere and sound needs medium to travel.<\/p>\n

Question 6.
\nWhat do you mean by time period?
\nAnswer:
\nThe time taken by a vibrating body to complete one oscillation is called the time period.<\/p>\n

\nAnswer:
\nThe sound which we can hear clearly is known as audible sound. It has a range of frequencies from 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz.<\/p>\n

Question 9.
\nWhat are infrasonic sounds?
\nAnswer:
\nSounds which have frequency lower than 20 Hz are called infrasonic sounds.<\/p>\n

Question 10.
\nWhat is noise pollution?
\nAnswer:
