      Motions of Vibrating Air Molecules Are Governed by Simple Forces
      Motions of Vibrating Air Molecules Change the Local Densities of Air

      Sinusoidal Motion
      Sinusoidal Motion (Simple Harmonic Motion) Is Derived from the Linear Projection of Uniform Circular Speed
      When the Linear Projection of Uniform Circular Speed Is Stretched Out in Time, the Result Is a Sine Wave
      Sinusoidal Motion Can Be Described by a Simple Formula and Has Three Important Characteristics: Frequency, Amplitude, and Phase

      Complex Acoustic Events
      Complex Periodic Events Have Waveforms That Repeat Their Patterns Over Time and Are Composed of Harmonically Related Frequency Components
      Complex Periodic Waveform Can Be Considered as the Sum of the Individual Sinusoids at the Harmonic Frequencies
      Complex Aperiodic Events Have Waveforms in Which No Repetitive Pattern Can Be Discerned, and Frequency Components That Are Not Harmonically Related
