Experiment 6: The Oscilloscope
February 14, 2017
Physics 122 LAB: Tuesday at 3:00pm-5:50pm
1.
Theory:
In this experiment we learned how to work with a digital oscilloscope and
make different kinds and different distance of sound to record. We mainly
were looking to calculate the exact speed of sound at the moment of the
sound. The oscilloscope gave us most of the information in our charts by
simply moving the horizontal lines to the two main highest points in the
sound and pushing buttons that would give us other numbers like the V
rms
,
except one. In our data for Period and Frequency in order to find the Period
theoretical you had to multiply the Sweet Rate SW and divisions between the
two highest points. For example, in our hum data the sweep rate SW was 2.00
ms/ and it was 3 divisions away from the other point. So when we multiple
these two we get 6.00 ms for our period theoretical.
2.
Procedure
The procedures were the exact same as the lab manual with the exception of
the ‘Note’ data. From the ‘note’ category we played Whitney Houston “I will
always love you” as the sound.

Introduction to Oceanography
Figure 3 An echo sounder determines water depth by measuring the time
required for an acoustic signal to travel from a ship to the seafloor and back. The
speed of sound in seawater is 1500 m/sec.
th's
with the invention of electronic depth-sounding equipment. The echo sounder
(also referred to as sonar) measures the precise time that a sound wave, traveling
at about 1500 meters per second, takes to reach the ocean floor and return to the
instrument (Figure 3).
Ships generally don't make single depth soundings. Rather, as a ship moves
from one location to another, it continually sends out sound pulses and records
the returning echoes. In this way, oceanographers obtain many depth recordings
from which a profile (cross-sectional view) of the ocean floor can be prepared.
Today, in addition to using sophisticated echo sounders such as multibeam sonar,
oceanographers are also using satellites to map the ocean floor.
