Investigating Sound in Different Temperatures

Competency: Infer how the movement of particles of an object affects the speed of sound through it
(S8FE-Ie-24)
Objective: Investigates the effect of temperature on the speed of sound through fair testing.

Materials: Tuning forks, beakers of water at different temperatures, stopwatch, thermometer

Procedure:
1. Provide a 3 beaker of water with different temperatures.
2. Strike the tuning fork against a hard surface and place it in the water.
3. Measure the time it takes for the sound to travel through the water and reach the surface.
4. Repeat the process with different temperatures of water.
Data Table:
Temperature Time Measured
Beaker 1
Beaker 2
Beaker 3

Guide Questions:
1. How does the speed of sound change as the temperature of the water increases?
2. What are the possible sources of error in this experiment?
