Newton's first law of motion
An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an outside force.
What is the difference between a longitudinal wave and a transverse wave?
in a longitudinal wave, particles of the medium vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave propagation, while in a transverse wave, particles vibrate perpendicular to the wave's direction of travel
List 5 uses for EM waves:
Infrared waves: Thermal imaging, night vision, remote controls
Visible light: Sight, optical communication (fiber optics)
Ultraviolet light: Sterilization, tanning beds
X-rays: Medical imaging (radiography)
Gamma rays: Medical treatments (cancer therapy), sterilization

transfer energy from one place to another, but they do not transfer matter; meaning the particles in the medium vibrate and pass on the energy, but they themselves don't move significantly with the wave itself.
as one approaches a blowing horn, the perceived pitch is higher until the horn is reached and then becomes lower as the horn is passed is an example of what?
The doppler effect
