regular patterns of motion
Wave
what measures pitch?
wavelength
All waves transfer ______, but they do not transfer matter.
energy
The higher the wave energy, the ____ the amplitude.
taller
Transverse waves move in a parallel fashion, continuous in a line (like bumper cars).
false (those are longitudinal waves)
Section of your science journal where you write the name of the experiment and the page number
table of contents
Name three types of waves
water, sound, heat, light, etc.
Waves with more energy have higher _________.
amplitudes
Why would scientists or engineers use a model?
-to test the prototype for safety, optimal function, etc
-to save money
-to demonstrate success to potential investors
The longer the wavelength, the less energy it has.
True
________exist everywhere—in regularly occurring shapes or structures and in repeating events and relationships. For example, _______ can be seen in the symmetry of flowers and snowflakes, the cycling of the seasons, and the repeated base pairs of DNA. Mathematics, computer science, art, and nature all have easily identifiable ______.
patterns
a measure of a wave's height that can also tell us how much energy a wave has
amplitude
The longer the wavelength, the less _____it has.
energy
amplitude measures
volume
Matter moves through waves, not energy.
False
a collection of information; gathered by observation, questioning or measurement
data
type of wave that carries sound
sound waves
Clap your hands together. The action creates a ______ in the air, which pushes particles of air together.
vibration
the words we use to describe amplitude
tall or short
Name three types of waves
water, sound, heat, light, etc.
the distance covered by a full cycle of a wave, usually measured from crest to crest, or trough to trough
wavelength
true or false: waves carry matter
false
Wave height is affected by wind ______, wind duration, or how long the wind blows, and fetch, which is the distance over water that the wind blows in a single direction. If wind _____ is slow, only small waves result.
speed
______ communicate information because the wave patterns are not constant or even.
Sounds
Transverse waves are visible in water waves.
Like light waves, these waves travel in only one direction.
