The date of Waves Unit test.
(Day of week, month and date is needed.)
What is Tuesday, October 21, 2025?
100
Regions in a sound wave where particles are farthest apart are called.
What is rarefaction?
100
This occurs when light bounces off an object, either in one direction or scattered in several or when sound bounces back.
What is reflection?
100
Most apples reflect this color.
What is red?
100
This wave is an example of a sound wave.
What are longitudinal waves?
200
Halloween
What is the major holiday in October, October 31st?
200
A light wave is an example of this type of wave.
What is a transverse wave?
(This does not need a medium to travel through.)
200
A mirror is an example of this property of light waves.
What is reflection?
200
This color light includes all the colors of the electromagnetic spectrum.
What is white?
200
Sound waves must have this in order to travel.
What is a medium?
300
October 7-10th, 2025
What dates did we attend Bournedale?
300
The movement of the particles in this wave move perpendicular to the direction of the wave.
What is a transverse wave?
300
This diagram shows this property of light waves.
What is refraction?
300
This property of light occurs when a surface interacts with black.
What is absorption? What is absorbing?
300
The higher frequency a wave has impacts the size of this property.
What is wavelength?
400
The Patriots beat this team yesterday by a lot!
Who are the Tennessee Titans?
400
The movement of the particles move parallel to the direction of the wave.
What is a longitudinal wave?
400
You are looking at a fish in a pond. This happens to a light wave as it travels through the water and changes mediums to travel through air allowing you to see the fish.
What is the light wave slows down?
400
Colors of light are bent at ______ angles.
What is different?
Hint:
400
If you change the pitch in a sound wave, this part of the wave (property of the wave) would change.
What is wavelength?
When the frequency increases, the wavelength distance decreases. More waves will be created.
500
The Assistant Principal of our school.
Who is Mrs. Dietz?
500
This wave needs a medium to travel through.
What is a longitudinal wave or mechanical wave?
Think: When we ring the chime, the sound moves through the air. Air is the medium.
500
When this property of light passes from a fast medium to a slow medium, it bends the light ray toward the normal to the boundary between the two media.
What is refraction?
500
Different wavelengths of light are seen as different ______
What is colors?
500
To increase the loudness of the wave, you increase this property of the wave.
What is amplitude?
