Introduction: light and sound -- Light and light waves -- Reflection and refraction -- Lenses -- The eye -- Photography -- Color and color vision -- Additive color mixing -- Subtractive color mixing -- Color-generating mechanisms -- Periodic oscillations -- Simple harmonic motion -- Damped oscillations and resonance -- Adding sound sources: beats and harmony -- Sound waves -- Sound perception: pitch, loudness, and timbre -- The ear -- Vibrations of strings -- Pipes -- Fourier analysis -- Musical scales -- Musical instruments -- Solutions to problems |
| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. |
|---|
| Summary, etc |
A course on sound and light for non-science majors covering the nature of sound and sound perception; fundamentals of harmony, musical photography, color perception, and color mixing. Easily understood by those with high school algebra and geometry |
| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. |
|---|
| Summary, etc |
A deep yet accessible analysis of the physics of light and sound, and how our eyes and ears detect them, is useful to understand the world in which we live, all the phenomena that take place around us, and how we perceive them. This title offers an alternative route to science literacy for those interested in the arts, music and photography. |
