Types of Waves
Properties of Waves
Energy!
Interaction of Light
Heat, Energy, & Light
100
This type of wave does NOT require a medium.
What is Electromagnetic Wave
100
Top peak of a wave
What is crest
100
Two forms of energy
What is Sound, Chemical, Light, Electrical, Nuclear, Thermal, Mechanical, and radiant.
100
The bending of light when it changes media.
What is Refraction
100
When energy CHANGES from one form to another.
What is energy transformation
200
This type of wave moves perpendicular (up and down) to the direction of energy
What is Transverse Wave
200
Distance from crest to crest or from trough to trough
What is Wavelength
200
The energy of an object in motion
What is Kinetic Energy
200
When all light is reflected and nothing is absorbed.
What is Opaque
200
The Electromagnetic Spectrum is divided into how many parts? And this part has the longest wavelength.
What is Seven(7) Parts, and Radio Waves
300
This type of waves requires a medium to travel through
What is Mechanical Wave
300
The acronym for visible light on the Electromagnetic Spectrum
What is ROY G BIV
300
Energy cannot be created or destroyed
What is Law of Conservation of Energy
300
An object seems fuzzy/blurry when seen through this material
What is Translucent
300
What does increasing the kinetic energy in a substance do to its temperature
What is Increase it or Make it hotter
400
This type of wave moves back and forth (compression and rarefaction). Many consider it to be the loudest
What is Longitudinal Wave
400
Determines the amount of energy a wave has. It is also the distance from the resting position of a wave, and it highest point.
What is Amplitude
400
An athlete eats a healthy breakfast and practices for her game later on. What forms of energy conversions are involved?
What is Chemical and Kinetic or Mechanical
400
Objects that appear "White" does this to all light
What is Reflect All Light
400
Which item has more thermal energy, a large iceberg or a pot of boiling water
What is large iceberg
500
Electromagnetic Waves can travel through this but Mechanical Waves cannot.
What is Vacuum or Empty Space
500
In order to speed up the number of collisions in a reaction, expand a substance, or increase the kinetic energy you must do this.
What is Add Heat
500
A baseball player throws a ball into the air. What two forms of energy conversions are involved?
What is potential and kinetic
500
An object that appears red reflects which color of the visible light spectrum
What is RED
500
What happens to the particles of a substance when it is cooled
The particles SLOW down.
