PHY 110 - Physics of Sound

The nature of sound and its physical properties will be examined. How those physical properties are perceived psychoacoustically through listening and the transfer of sound information through the auditory mechanism will be explored. Sound waves, harmonics, resonance, and the recording of sound will be covered. This course is intended primarily for Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology majors and does not fulfill the core curriculum lab science requirement.
