Description
Sound travels at different speeds through different materials; this speed is typically calculated using the material’s stiffness and density. In this project we will be using a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) along with geophones and GPS for timing to determine the speed of sound in steel to compare this to the values found using the material’s properties.
