Waves
These types of waves require a medium for travel
What are Mechanical Waves
The speed of sounds is impacted by this
What is the air temperature
What is a mirror
The time to complete one cycle
What is the Period (T)
A reflected wave will invert at this type of boundary
What is solid/rigid
The high point of a wave
what is a crest
The pitch of a sound is dependent on this
What is the frequency
A lens shaped like an hourglass
What is a concave lens
The period of a pendulum is dependent on this
What is the length
This wave strikes a boundary
What is the incident wave
The number of times a wave passes though a given point in 1 second
What is the frequency
How loud a sound is depends on this
what is the amplitude
This type of image can be projected onto a surface
This type of periodic motion has a restoring force that is proportional to the displacement
what is simple harmonic motion
The superposition of waves with equal and opposite amplitudes.
What is a destructive interference
The energy of a wave is best represented by this
What is the amplitude
This is why a sound will appear to have a higher pitch while it approaches and a lower pitch when it moves farther away.
The doppler effect
This is a converging lens and is shaped like a football
What is a convex lens
This energy is the result of compressing or elongating a spring
What is elastic potential energy
The bending of a wave as it enters a new medium
What is refraction
This type of wave will vibrate parallel to the wave's propagation
What is a longitudinal wave
The frequency the human ear can pick up
What is 20-16,000 Hz
A mirror that will created a real image when you are outside of the focal length
What is a concave mirror
A wave will reflect at the same angle it strikes the boundary.
What is the law of reflection
This wave pattern appears when two waves of the same frequency and amplitude interfere with each other.
What is a standing wave
