Properties of oscillatory motion 1. The Amplitude is the maximum displacement achieved by an oscillating body away

from its point of rest. It is measured in meter (m). 2- The complete oscillation is the

movement made by the oscillating body when it passes a single point in its path of motion, two

consecutive times in the same direction. The pendulum completes one oscillation when it covers the distance:

Wave motion is the movement that results from the vibration of the particles of the medium in a specific direction.

The direction of the progress of the wave is the line of wave propagation

According to the direction of vibration of the particles of the medium , waves are classified to transverse & longitudinal waves. Activity 3:

 Aims: To compare transverse waves & longitudinal waves. 

Tools: Spring , coloured tape & a nail.

Steps: a. Fix one end of the spring to a wall using the nail. b. Tie the colored tape at the middle of the spring.

case: Move the coil up & down perpendicular to the axis of the spring.

Observation1: The rings move up taking the shape of a crest then the rings move down taking the shape

st

of a trough.

2nd case Push the coils of the spring towards the wall. 

Observation 2:

the direction of wave propagation (rings of the spring coil) is the same direction of vibration of the medium particles (the colored tape). 

Conclusion

1. The transverse wave is formed of crests and troughs as compared to the

longitudinal waves which are formed of compressions and rarefactions. 2. The highest point in a transverse wave with respect to the horizontal line is

called the crest , while the lowest point is called the trough .

11


3. In longitudinal waves, the point of highest density and pressure is called compression, while the point of lowest density and pressure is called rarefaction.

Physiotherapy tubs (Jacuzzi) 12


Jacuzzi is a tub where water moves in circular waves. It's used to treat sprains and cramps when filled with hot water and nervous tension when filled with cold water. It’s found in health clubs.

We can't hear the sound of solar explosions because sound is transferred in the form of mechanical waves which aren’t transmitted through space. We can see the light coming out of the sun which is transmitted as electromagnetic waves that can travel through space. Thunder occurs with lightning at the same time but we hear thunder after seeing lightning because the speed of light is bigger than the speed of sound.

The ears distinguish different sounds because sounds differ in 3 characterisitics: Sound pitch. Sound intensity.

First: Sound Pitch Sound quality.

The sound of the lion is

harsh & that of the sparrow is high.

The voice of the woman is sharp or high-pitched compared to a man’s voice which is low-pitched. 

Activity 1:

Aim: To conclude the relation between frequency & the pitch of sound.

Tools: Big book –

rubber band – 2 pencils

24


Steps:

1. Tie the rubber band around the book . 2. Insert the two pens below the band, closer to the book edges. 3. Put your left forefinger on the band at a distance 10 cm from one of the two

pens. 4. Pluck that segment by the forefinger of the right hand. 5. Change the length of the rubber band with your left forefinger then repeat

step 4 . 

Observations

The sound pitch changes as the length of the vibrating segment changes. By increasing the length of the rubber band , the sound pitch becomes sharper (low) .

Conclusion:

1. Sound pitch is a property of sound that distinguishes between harsh and sharp

voices. 2. The sharpness of sound increases as the frequency of the source increases.

 Activity

2: Set up 3 test tubes filled to different levels with

tube & hear the sounds.

25

water. Blow across the mouth of each test


Observation: The short column of air gives a high-pitched (sharp) sound. The long column of air gives a low – pitched (harsh) sound.

Conclusion: The vibration of the air molecules above water produces sound. The pitch changes according to the length of air column.

 Activity

3 :Determining the pitch of a tone using Savart's wheel.

I.

Savart's wheel is used to determine the frequency of a tone.

Steps:

1. Listen to the tone for a while. 2. Rotate Savart's wheel at different speeds. The gear is in contact with a

flexible metal sheet. 3. When you hear a tone similar to the first tone you want to find its frequency ,

count the number of cycles taking place in a certain period of time (t). 4. You also need to know the number of teeth of the gear (n) Frequency (F) = no. of cycles (d) x no. of teeth (n) Time (t)

A solved example: What’s the frequency of a tone produced by Savart's Wheel that rotates with velocity of 900 cycles in 3 minutes, the number of teeth of the gear is 30 teeth. t = 3 x 60 = 180 s F = 900 x 30 180 F = 150 Hz 2. Sound intensity

Sound intensity is a property of sound that distinguishes strong and weak sounds (loud & quite). a. The sound intensity at a point is the amount of sound

energy falling

perpendicular on a unit area surrounding this point in one second. b.

Sound intensity is measured by Watt/meter2

26


c. Noise intensity is expressed by Decibel scale.  

Activity 4: Aim: To conclude the relation between the distance between the sound source and the ear & the intensity of sound.

Steps:

At which position is the sound intensity the highest? 

Observation:

The voice is loudest when you are the nearest to the other person. 

Conclusion :

Sound intensity decreases gradually as the distance between the sound source and the ear increases. Sound intensity at a point is inversely proportional to

the square of the distance

between the source of sound and that point.

Activity 5:

Aim: To determine the effect of the amplitude of the sound source on the sound intensity.

Steps:

1. Fix one end of a ruler on the edge of a table by your right hand. 2. Pull the other end of the ruler by the other hand, and then set it free. 

Observation :

The amplitude of the vibrating ruler & the sound intensity decrease by time. 

Conclusion: 27


Sound intensity is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude of

vibration of the source. The figure represents two sound waves A & B. Wave

B has higher amplitude & therefore it’s louder.

Activity 6 :

Aim: To conclude the effect of a resonating box on the sound intensity.

Tools: 2 mobile phones – a cardboard box with an opening at one end that can fit the mobile.

Steps:

1. Let a mate carry a cell phone (A) adjusted to the vibration mode. Use another

mobile to phone mobile (A). 2. Make an opening at one end of a box , then put mobile (A) at the open end. The

box is a resonance box. Now phone mobile(A) 3. Compare th e sound intensity in both cases . 

Observation:

The sound of the mobile on the resonance box is louder. 

Conclusion:

When the source of sound touches a resonance box ,th e air in the box vibrates increasing the sound intensity.

28


Activity 7:

Aim: To identify the effect of the density of the medium on sound intensity.

Tools:

Air vacuum pump – glass jar – an alarm clock

Steps:

1.

Put the alarm clock on the air vacuum pump

and cover it by the glass jar . Listen to the ring of the alarm clock. 2.

Pump the air outside the jar partially.

Compare the sound intensity before and after the evacuation of air .

Observation:

The sound is weaker after pumping the air out. 

Conclusion:

Sound intensity is affected by the density of the medium that transmits the sound. Sound intensity increases as the density of the medium increases.

Wind direction: Sounds traveling in the direction of the wind are louder than sounds that travel against wind direction.

Factors affecting sound intensity: The distance between the sound source and the ear. The amplitude of the sound source. The area of the vibrating surface (a resonating box). The density of the medium through which sound travels. Direction of the wind. 29 and the ear: The distance between the source of sound


Ear plugs made of silicon are placed in the external ear canal to reduce noise. Why are ears able to distinguish between the musical tones produced by a violin and a piano even if the tones have the same pitch and intensity?

The fundamental tone is a simple tone produced from a vibrating tuning fork. The tones produced from an instrument is a series of harmonic tones that differ in intensity & pitch.

Harmonic tones of different instruments are different & help the ear recognize the source of sound.

Ultrasonic & infrasonic waves: Humans are unable to hear all sounds. An example is the sounds

produced by dolphins because the human ears

are affected by sounds of a frequency range between 20 Hz - 20 KHz

Lesson 2:

Reflection of sound waves • Sound waves are reflected when they fall on a reflecting surface.

Sound reflection explains: • why the roofs of worship places are built in the

form of domes. • why the ears of the gazelle are big. • how a doctor examines an embryo in the womb.

The laws of sound reflection. 

Activity 1

Aims: Verifying the laws of sound reflection.

Tools: wooden plate – foam plate – table – two cardboard tubes, one of them contains a stopwatch

Steps

1. Arrange the tools according to the figure. 2. Fix tube (b) and change the position of tube

(a) until you hear the clearest sound. 3. Change the angle tube b makes with the foam plate then repeat step 2 . 35


Observations

1. You hear the sound clearly when the angle betw een tube (a) & the foam plate =

the angle between tube (b) & the foam plate. 2. The sound isn’t heard clearly when tube (b) is perpendicular to the table.

The following figure represents a sound ray (a) , the reflecting surface & the reflected sound ray

Conclusion

The laws of sound reflection are : The angle of incidence = the angle of reflection. The incident sound ray, the reflected sound ray, and the normal to the reflecting surface at the point of incidence lie in one plane perpendicular to the reflecting surface. The sound that falls perpendicular to a reflecting surface is reflected on itself & therefore the ear doesn’t distinguish the two sounds.

Echo is the repetition of sound due to its reflection. When you clap your hand near a wall you can’t hear an echo. Th e reflected sound comes quickly from the wall that you can’t separate the sound from its reflection. Scientists found that humans can’t separate sounds if the time between them is 0.1 seconds. 36


m distance we must stand from reflecting surface in order to hear an echo. Calculating the minimu

The speed of sound in air is 340 m/s Distance travelled by sound in 0.1 s = 340 x 0.1 = 34 m (towards the reflecting surface then back to you) Distance between the reflecting surface & the reflecting surface = 34 á 2 = 17 m

Echo is heard when : 1.

The reflecting surface is big such as walls, mountains or watery landscapes.

2.

The reflecting surface should be at least 17 meter far from the source of sound.

Using echo in technical & medical applications aďƒ˜

Calculating the speed of sound in air

Steps:

1. Let a person stand with a stopwatch at a known distance (at least 300 m) from

another person who holds 2 lids. 2. Let the 2nd person bang the lids. 3. When the 1st person sees the other banging the lids he starts the stopwatch &

he stops it when he hears the sound. Record this time. The velocity of sound (v) =

2 x the distance in meters (d) Time in seconds (t)

A solved problem A girl produced a sound & heard its echo after 3 seconds . Calculate the distance between the shore and the cliff . The velocity of sound in air is 330 m/s. 330 = 2 d 3 d = (3 x 330 ) á 2

= 495 m

b-

Concentration of Sound:

Sound reflected from a concave surface collect at a point known as the focus of the surface reinforcing the sound. Mosques & many conference halls have concaved ceilings to concentrate sound & make it clearer .

Gazelles & foxes have long concaved ears to concentrate sounds.

c-

Determination of sea depth and fish shoals:

The sonar device in the ship produces ultrasonic waves. A hydrophone receives the reflected sound waves from sea bed or fish shoals. The depth (d) = velocity of sound (v) x echo time (t) 2

( t ) is the time interval between transmitting and receiving the waves (echo time).

Detecting defects & flaws in metallic pipes & parts of factory machines to avoid disasters. d-

Ultrasonic waves are directed to the pipes & machines to be examined. The 38


variation in the intensity of reflected ultrasonic sounds detect cracks & welding defects.

e-

Medical diagnosis:

Ultrasonic waves are used in medical investigations and laboratory tests & in checking the state of an embryo, because diff erent parts of the body reflect ultrasonic waves in various intensities.

An ultrasound image of a fetus at 20 weeks

Bats transmit ultrasonic waves (50 - 100 kHz) and receive their reflected

waves .This helps them to findRead food &more: fly in the dark without hitting obstacles. Dolphins use a similar method to find its food in the sea.

Conclusion

In position 2 ,the light incident on the unit area of the surface decreases.

Light intensity is the amount of light incident onto a unit area of a surface in one second. Light intensity decreases as the distance between the surface and the light source increases . The inverse square law of light states that light intensity of a surface is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the surface and the source of light . The head lights of some cars are mercury lamps to give bright illumination that shows other cars in the fog. At night, this bright light impairs the vision of drivers of the cars coming in the opposite direction.

Conclusion The laws of reflection of light are The angle of incidence = the angle of reflection . 2-The incident light ray, the reflected light ray and the normal at the point of incidence to the reflecting surface are in a plane perpendicular to the reflecting surface. The light ray perpendicular to the mirror is reflected on itself where the angle Of incidence = the angle of reflection = zero.

Refraction of light

The path of a barrel on the asphalt is different from its path on sand because it moves with different velocity on each medium. Also light travels in different transparent media with different velocities.

Light refracts (change its path) when it passes from a transparent medium to another. The optical density of the medium is the ability of the transparent medium to refract light. 

Activity 2:

Aim: To conclude the laws of light refraction

Tools: Thick rectangular glass block – pencil–protractor - white paper sheet – ruler – laser pen .

Steps:

1. Draw the outline of the rectangular glass block on the paper sheet. 2. Direct a ray from the laser pen to the point of incidence (a) as in the figure.

Draw a straight line to represent the incident ray. 3. Draw the path of the emergent ray from the point (b) on the opposite side of

the rectangular prism. 4. Remove the rectangular prism .

52


5. Join (a) and (b) with a straight line to represent the refracted ray. 6. Draw at ( a ) and ( b ) dotted vertical lines , each represents the normal at the

point of incidence. ďƒ˜

Observations

1. The angle between the incident ray and the normal at the point ( a ) = the angle of incidence.

2.The angle between the refracted ray and the normal at point (a) = the angle of refraction. 3.The angle between the emergent ray and the normal at the point ( b ) = the angle of emergence.

Conclusion Light refracts when it travels from a transparent medium to another transparent one of different optical density. The angle of incidence is the angle between the incident light ray and the normal at the point of incidence on the interface. The angle of refraction is the angle between the refracted light ray and the normal at the point of incidence on the interface. The angle of emergence is the angle between the emergent light ray and the normal at the point of emergence on the boundary surface.

Laws of light refraction

53


a. When a light ray travels from air to glass , the refracted ray moves towards the normal because the optical density of the 2nd medium (glass) is bigger than that of air (the 1st medium)

b. When a light ray travels from glass to air, it refracts away from the normal at the point of incidence. That’s because the optical density of the 1st medium (glass) is bigger than the optical density of the 2nd medium. c. When a light ray is perpendicular to the surface between

two transparent media, the light ray passes without changing its path (i.e. the light ray doesn’t refract). d. The ratio between the speed of light in air to that in another transparent

medium is the absolute refractive index of that medium (n) The refractive index (n)

=

Speed of light in air Speed of light in medium

The speed of light in air is bigger than its speed

through any transparent medium,

therefore the refractive index of any transparent medium is bigger than one.

A solved example Calculate the velocity of light in glass. The velocity of light in air equals 3x 10 8 m/s. The absolute refractive index of glass is 1.5 Speed of light (glass) = Speed of light (air) refractive index of glass

Speed of light (glass) = 3x 108 ÷ 1.5 = 2 x 108 m/s

Observation

The light ray is refracted in the cases where the

angle of incidence is less than

48.6° The light ray is reflected back into water when the

angle of incidence is more

than 48.6°

Conclusion

a. When the light ray falls on the water surface with an angle larger than the

critical angle , light doesn’t pass through the boundary & is reflected . b. The critical angle is the angle of incidence above which the total internal

reflection occurs. c. Total internal reflection occurs when light travels from a high optical density

medium (water) to a lower density medium.

1. A pencil partially immersed in water appears as being broken due to refraction of light rays coming from 55


the immersed part in water.

1. Fish in a lake have an apparent position slightly abo ve its real position due to refraction of light rays away from the normal. The eye sees the

extensions of the refracted rays coming from the fish. 2. When you travel in the desert in very hot weather , you see a lake in the

distance which disappears as you get closer. This phenomenon is called mirage & is caused by light refraction. It happens because air near the hot ground is hotter than the air higher up. 3. The rays coming from a tree refract on traveling between layers of air of different temperature. Total internal reflection happens to the rays coming from the tree. This layer appears as a watery area and a virtual and inverted image of the tree is formed.

Steps of reproduction - Pollination - Fertilization

62


- Pollination: When pollen grains mature , the anther splits up longitudinally, releasing pollen grains in the air.

Pollination is the transfer of pollen grains from anthers of a flower to the stigma.

Types of pollination: P.O.C. Method of pollination

Auto (self) pollination

Mixed pollination

stigma in the same plant

to the stigma of a different

plant

Examples

barley & maize

Sunflowers

Methods of cross pollination: The pollen grains are transferred from one flower to another by many ways:

Pollination by air: The anthers of some flowers hang out and their stigmas are feathery and sticky to catch pollen grains. These flowers are pollinated by air. They produce huge numbers of light dry pollen

grains where many are lost in the air.

Pollination by insects : Some flowers have colored, scented petals that 63


attract insects. Bees absorb the nectar in the flower.The pollen grains are sticky or have coarse surfaces to stick to the insect. Artificial pollination is done by the farmer who spreads palm tree pollen grains over the female flowers. In plants : Fertilization is the fusion of the male cell (pollen grain) with the (female cell) ovum.

Germination of pollen grains:  Activity

Observation :

Steps of germination

Steps of germination

1. After pollination, pollens secrete a sugary solution. 2. The pollen grain forms a pollen tube containing two male nuclei and a tube nucleus. 3. The pollen tube extends through the style and reaches the ovum by the micropyle opening in the ovary. 4. One of the male nuclei fuses with the egg to form a 64


fertilized ovum which is

known as the zygote. 5. The zygote divides several times to form the embryo. 6. The embryo develops to become a seed & the ovary grows to become the fruit.

Vegetative reproduction Sexual reproduction involves a male & female cell which join forming a zygote.

65


Plants also reproduce asexually where parts of a plant separate off & grow into a new plant.

In plants: asexual reproduction is known as vegetative reproduction. Vegetative reproduction may be. 1. By tubers: Some plants form swellings called tubers which store food. A tuber is a root like sweet potatoes or an underground stem like potatoes. A tuber of potato is cut into pieces so that each piece contains at least one bud (eye). Then the pieces are buried in the soil in the season of cultivation. From each bud a new plant emerges.

2.

By cutting:

One of the branches of the stem is cut into pieces, each cut containing 2 or more buds . These are planted before spring with some buds below the surface of the soil & some above the surface of the soil . Roots grow from the buds below the surface & leaves grow from the buds above the surface of the soil. • Examples are roses , grapes & sugar cane. • Cuts from leaves of some plants are used to produce new plants.

3. By grafting: •

A plant tissue (the

scion) such as a branch or a bud is attached to an already growing plant (the rootstock). A new plant

then grows from the scion.

Example : mango tree , orange tree , naring, apples and pears, peaches and apricots. Methods of reproduction by grafting: •

Lesson 2: Reproduction in humans 1.

Like all higher animals , humans can only reproduce sexually. A sperm from a

man joins with an egg (ovum) in the woman to produce a new human individual . 2.

The offspring is different from the parents.

3.

The system responsible for reproduction in humans is called the genital system.

Male genital system is different in structure & function from female genital system.

Cowper's gland

They secrete an alkaline fluid which is mixed with the sperms forming the seminal fluid.Their secretion neutralizes the acidity of urine & nourishes the sperms to keep them alive & help them flow easily.

The penis

Sponge like tissue .

Discharge of semen & urine.

The urethra travels through the penis.

Testosterone 1. Testator on is responsible for the signs of puberty which include appearance of moustache & beard, the change of voice & the growth of muscles & bones. 2. The testes are enclosed inside a sac is known as scrotum outside the body to keep the temperature of the organ two degrees below the internal temperature of the body. This is the temperature suitable for the growth and development of sperms. 3. If the testes where kept inside the body and didn't come out during the development of the embryo , the sperms would die .

The female genital system The human female genital system consists of two ovaries, fallopian tubes, the uterus and the vagina.

3.

The nuclei of the sperm and ovum fuse together to form the fertilized ovum known as the

zygote that contains a nucleus with 23 pairs of chromosomes.

The placenta develops in the uterus , it’s a mass of blood vessels which connects the developing fetus to the uterus wall to allow nutrient uptake & gas exchange via mother’s blood vessels. It connects to the fetus via the umbilical cord.

Development of the embryo 1.

The zygote is propelled to the uterus where it’s implanted.

2.

The zygote divides several times to form a clump of cells.
