Define: Amplitude

Amplitude is the distance from the resting point in a wave to the crest.

300

A type of wave in which the particles move in a perpendicular pattern to the direction the wave is traveling in.

Transverse Wave

300

What are the 2 components of a force?

How are forces measured?

The two components are strength and direction.

Forces are measured in newtons.

300

Set, floater, and wipe are terms used in which team sport?

Volleyball

300

Identify whether it is a chemical or physical change:

Burning of paper.

Chemical change

300

How do you measure the frequency of a wave?

Number of wave/ time

400

Based on your understanding of waves, are you able to hear sound in space? Explain your reasoning.

No. Sound waves are a mechanical wave which require matter in which to travel. Space does not have matter to allow it to travel through.

400

Which of Newton's law applies?

A hockey puck continues to slide along an ice rink after being pushed with an initial force of 50N.

Newton's 1 Law

400

What country is responsible for creating the Olympic Games?

Greece

400

Identify whether it is a chemical or physical change: Freezing water to form ice and then leaving it outside to melt into a liquid.

Physical change

400

A car is traveling at 50 miles/hour on a straight road. Is the car accelerating? Explain.

The car is not accelerating because the speed and direction of motion do not change.
