Waves
Two types of waves
What are Transverse & longitudinal (compressional) waves?
The flow of electric charges through a current.
What is a current electricity?
The cause of sound.
What is a Vibration?
A device that is magnetized by current electricity.
What is an electromagnet?
This property of light is a bending of the wavelengths to separate the different colors.
What is refraction?
A disturbance that transfers energy from place to another.
What is a wave?
This subatomic particle moves along a circuit and provides power.
What is an electron?
This unit describes the frequency of sound waves (and can even be undetectable if too high.)
What is pitch(Hz)?
This occurs when two like charges get close to each other.
What is repel?
A measurement of how far the particles in the medium move away from their normal rest position.
What is amplitude?
This item, commonly referred to as the wire, lets the charges move freely. This item however, does not let charges flow through it as easy.
What is a conductor and an insulator?
The kind of waves are sound waves.
What are longitudinal waves?
On a magnet, this is where the magnetic field is the strongest.
Where is towards the poles?
This item can split white light into its component colors, by separating the colors by wavelength.
What is a prism?
When wavelength of a sound wave increases, these two properties also increase.
What are pitch and frequency?
In this circuit, if one light bulb shorts, it cuts off the flow of electricity/
What is a series circuit?
A sound wave moves the quickest in this medium.
What is a solid?
If you do this to a magnet, you will have two magnets both with a new North and South pole.
What happens when you cut a magnet in half?
Light travels as this wave type, unlike sound waves.
What are transverse waves?
This is a measurement of the length of one cycle, or repetition of a wave.
What is wavelength?
If a sound wave moves right to left, in what direction do the particles move?
What is right to left?
These metals are magnetic.
What are iron, nickel, and cobalt?
