100
This type of wave does not require a medium.
What is an electromagnetic wave?
100
The lowest point of a transverse wave.
What is a trough?
100
The number of waves that pass a fixed point in a given amount of time and is measured in hertz.
What is frequency.
100
An echo is an example of this sound wave behavior.
What is reflection.
100
Describe the speed of sound when traveling in a cold medium.
What is slow?
200
Waves that require a medium.
What is mechanical wave?
200
The spread out portion of a longitudinal wave.
What is the rarefaction?
200
The speed of a wave is calculated by using these two things.
What is wavelength and frequency?
200
The speed of sound is faster in this type of medium.
What is solid.
200
When two different sound waves meet at the compression of the two waves, this has occurred, and this will happen.
What is constructive interference and the sound will get louder.
300
Ocean waves are an example of this type of wave.
What is transverse waves.
300
This wave moves the particles of the medium in a motion that is perpendicular to the wave's motion.
What is a transverse wave.
300
One factor that affects the speed of a mechanical wave.
What is the medium?
300
When sound changes medium then the sound wave would exhibit this type of wave behavior.
What is refraction.
300
The further you move from a sound source, this will happen to the loudness.
What is go down or decrease.
400
The material that is needed in order for a transverse wave to travel.
What is a medium?
400
The distance between the resting point and a trough or the resting point and a crest.
What is the amplitude?
400
Loudness of a sound wave is measured in this unit.
What is decibel.
400
Pitch depends on this factor of a sound wave.
What is the frequency.
400
These three sections describe how the ear is separated.
What is outer ear, middle ear, and inner ear.
500
Sound is an example of this type of wave?
What is longitudinal waves?
500
The crest of a transverse wave corresponds to this part of a longitudinal wave.
What is the compression.
500
The higher the amplitude of a wave the higher this other property.
What is frequency?
500
This phenomena describes a moving sound source in which the frequency of the sound waves are different in front and behind the source.
What is the Doppler Effect?
500
This part of the ear transmits information to the brain.
What is the cochlea
