100
An ocean wave is an example of this kind of wave.
What is mecahnical?
100
A car braking to a stop.
Unbalanced Forces (Because the force of friction is greater than the force of the car being pushed forward)
100
In 2009, this artist's music video for "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" was infamously interrupted by Kanye West at the VMAs.
Who is Beyonce?
100
The number of millimeters that equal one meter.
What is 1000?
100
These are electromagnetic waves with the longest wavelength and lowest frequencies.
What are radio waves?
100
This type of wave doesn't require a medium to travel.
What is electromagnetic?
100
A satellite orbiting Earth at a constant speed.
What is balanced forces? (Because if the speed is constant, this means the satelite is no longer being pushed by any force, otherwise it would accelerate)
100
This 2017 battle royale game popularized the "floss" dance and was an unexpected crossover phenomenon.
100
This is the factor in an experiment that a scientist intentionally changes or manipulates.
What is the experimental variable? (variable is acceptable)
100
These electromagnetic waves are just shorter than the length of visible light, which means they carry slightly more energy.
What is UV or ultraviolet light?
100
This is refered to the maximum distance that the medium vibrates from the resting position.
What is the amplitude?
100
Two equally matched teams in a tug-of-war where the rope doesn't move
What is Balanced Forces? (Because the tension force in the rope is pulling both ways equally since the rope doesn't move to one side)
100
This character, a mushroom retainer who serves Princess Peach, has a distinct squeaky voice and spotted head.
Who is Toad?
100
An atom's nucleus contains protons and neutrons, but this particle, which has a negative charge, orbits outside the nucleus.
What is an electron?
100
True of False: The longer the wavelength the higher the frequency of the radiation.
What is false?
100
In this type of wave, the medium vibrates in the same direction as the direction of the wave.
What is a longitudinal wave?
100
A rocket launching into space.
What is unbalanced forces? (The force of thrust generated from the engine of the rocket is greater than the force of gravity experienced by the rocket)
100
An acronym for "Greatest Of All Time," frequently used to describe athletes, musicians, or competitive gamers.
What is the GOAT?
100
The name for the protective layer in Earth's stratosphere that absorbs most of the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation.
What is the Ozone Layer?
100
These types of electromagnetic waves can be seen by the naked eye, and consist of 7 main colors in the spectrum.
What is visible light?
100
This is a measure of distance of the wave before it starts to repeat.
What is a wavelength?
100
An apple falling from a tree.
What is unbalanced forces? (Gravity is the force pulling down the apple and only a small force of air resistance is opposing it)
100
The name of the boy wizard who grew up under the stairs at 4 Privet Drive. (Extra 100 points if you know the FULL Name)
Who is Harry James Potter?
100
This classification of animal, which includes snakes and lizards, is cold-blooded and has scales.
What is Cold Blooded (or exothermic)
100
These types of electromagnetic waves are of a higher frequency and energy than UV rays. Bones and some tissue can absorb these rays, which is why they are used in the medical field to make images of body parts.
What are x-rays?
