Wave Energy
The height or depth of a wave from its resting position.
What is amplitude?
This is a giant ball of superheated gasses, mostly hydrogen and helium.
What is a star?
In this type of circuit, all objects in the circuit are on the same path. Disconnecting one part will shut down the circuit.
What is a series circuit?
This is the force that keeps our planets in orbit and you on the ground!
What is gravity?
This is the environment an organism needs in order to live, grow, and reproduce.
What is a habitat?
You would calculate this with the formula:
Wavelength X Frequency = S
What is the speed of a wave?
This is a cold mixture of ice and dust that follows a cyclical path in our solar system, leaving a glowing tail when near the sun.
What is a comet?
This is a measure of how difficult it is for electricity to flow in a circuit.
What is resistance?
This is the idea that the sun is the center of our solar system.
What is heliocentric?
This is all the members of a single species that live in one area.
What is a population?
Sound is an example of this kind of wave, which needs a medium to travel.
What is a mechanical wave?
This constellation depicts a very large bear.
What is Ursa Major?
This is the formula for determining voltage.
What is Voltage = Current X Resistance?
An area of plasma on the surface of a star that is briefly cooler than the rest of the surface.
What is a sunspot?
This is a diagram consisting of many overlapping food chains in an environment.
What is a food web?
This effect causes sound waves to bounce off a surface, and light to bounce off a mirror.
What is reflection?
This is the word we use to describe the apparent motion of objects in the night sky, relative to our own position.
What is parallax?
This is the amount of digital information that can be transmitted and measured in bits per second.
What is bandwidth?
All objects in space give off energy in this form.
What is electromagnetic radiation?
This is an organism that needs to find food from a source outside of itself. Most animals are examples of this!
What is a heterotroph?
This type of lens forms a virtual image smaller than than the object originally was.
What is a concave lens?
Because these happen at the same speed, we see the same one side of the moon every night.
What are the moon's rotation and revolution?
This is the number of bytes inside of one terabyte.
What is one trillion bytes?
These are the years that Voyager 1 was launched and then left our solar system.
What are 1977 and 2012?
In an energy pyramid or food web, this is the amount of energy available from a lower level of the pyramid to an upper level.
What is about 10%?
