Wax paper allows some light to pass through, so it is categorized as this.
What is translucent?
Most if not all light passes through this type of material.
What is transparent?
An incomplete circuit
What is an open circuit?
A device that either multiplies of redirects force
The height of these tells us this
What is amplitude?
A car stops quickly and your body moves forward until it is stopped by a seatbelt. This is an example of:
What is inertia?
What are photons?
This is required to make electric circuits work. Hint: battery
What is a power source?
This is what simple machines create that either magnifies the force or increases the speed
What is a mechanical advantage?
The number of times a wave crests in a measure of time
What is frequency?
The motion of electrons from one place to another
What is electricity?
This material does not allow any light to pass through.
What is opaque?
Light bulb, hair dryer, refrigerator
What is a load?
This simple machine consists of a grooved wheel that rotates freely on a frame
What is a pulley?
760mph
What is Mach ? or what is the speed of sound?
This set of pulleys requires more rope, so there is a longer distance to pull but with less effort.
What is block and tackle?
When light bends. Hint: a straw in water
What is refraction?
definition of an electric circuit
What is a closed path through which electric current flows?
These two simple machines make a screw.
What is an inclined plane and a wheel and axle?
Sound waves would move faster this part of the core of the earth.
What is the inner core?
In experiment 9.3, we did this to lower the frequency of the sound.
What is add water to a glass?
Unlike sound, light does not need this to travel.
That is matter?
Anything that takes energy from the electrons as they move through the circuit.
What are resistors?
This simple machine increases the distance and reduces the effort.
What is an inclined plane or a pulley?
If the wavelength of a wave is increased, the frequency does this.
What is lowered?
