Assignment 3: Harmonic spectra
Here is the download site for Audacity. You will need to install it before doing the assignment if you are working on your own computer.(note: unfortuantely, for now the version in the tech lab is older than the version you will install, but the differences are not very confusing.)
First watch Lecture #6 (also below) on harmonic spectra.
For the assignment, you will need to be running Audacity, and streaming the video below, as you answer the questions on the Google form. Pause where indicated to answer each question before you go on!
Note: this video was recorded with a previous version of Audacity. Some details of the interface and function have changed. If you’re unable to figure out how to do anything required in the activities, email me and I’ll try to help sort it out.
You will also need to watch the short Lecture #7 on the Doppler shift before answering question 8 on the form below.
Lecture #6: Harmonic spectra
Also read Hosken, ch. 3, pp. 36-47.
This reading reinforces the material in the lecture below.
Reminder: I will post Hosken PDFs for the first week or two only.
