100
Any disturbance that transmits energy
What is a wave?
100
This causes an object to look bent in water
What is refraction?
100
A section of a longitudinal wave where the particles are spread further apart
What is rarefaction?
100
This is equal to frequency times wavelength and is measured in m/s.
What is wave speed?
100
Drum set, guitar, radio, and flashlight of these items this one would work best in space?
What is a flashlight?
200
The maximum distance a wave vibrates from its rest position is called its
What is amplitude?
200
The loudness of a sound is a measure of wave
What is amplitude?
200
Light waves travel fastest through
What is a vacuum?
200
Two waves with the same wavelength overlap and interfere constructively. The resulting wave will have
What is lower amplitude?
200
This is the vibration of one object causing similar vibrations in a near by object,
What is resonance?
300
The distance a single wave crest or trough travels in a set amount of time is a measure of the
What is wave speed?
300
These waves do not require a medium.
What are electromagnetic waves.
300
A wave has a low speed and a high frequency, so we can infer that its wavelength will be
What is short?
300
This allows you to see a sharp, clear image of yourself on a water surface.
What is reflection?
300
This type of wave occurs at the boundary between two media when transverse and longitudinal waves combine.
What is a surface wave?
400
This results when two or more waves share the same space at the same time.
What is interference.
400
Seismic waves, ocean waves, and sound waves are all examples of these types of waves.
What are mechanical waves?
400
Radio waves, light waves, and X-rays are examples of
What are electromagnetic waves?
400
This occurs when the crest of one wave overlaps the trough of another wave
What is destructive interference?
400
The frequency of the wave if you count 10 crests in 5 sec.
What is 2 Hz?
500
This happens when a wave curves or bends around a barrier.
What is diffraction?
500
The section of a longitudinal wave where the particles are crowded together is called a
What is compression?
500
This is the number of waves produced in a given amount of time measured in Hertz.
What is frequency?
500
This is the wave frequency of a wave that has wavelength of 3m and a speed of 18 m/s?
What is 6 Hz?
500
These waves have portions which do not appear to move and other portions that move with larger amplitude
