Plate Movements
When plates move apart
Divergent
Which color has the most energy
Violet
yelling through a wall
refraction
Waves that move parallel to the direction of the wave
longitudinal
Why are fossil fuels nonrenewable
takes years to replenish
When plates rub together
Transform
Which color has the least energy
Red
Yelling in the hall with the door cracked
defraction
Waves that move perpendicular to the direction of the wave
What are examples of renewable resources
hydro, geothermal, wind, solar
When plates move toward each other
Convergent
The bending of light waves
Refraction
what happens to sound waves when there is carpet on the floor
absorption
Which type of wave has to go through a medium
Why would a dam not be a good idea for a sole energy source
if it breaks, clogs up, cracks, no water
Plates that move at a fault
Transform
The reflection of light waves
Reflection
When sound waves are absorbed, what do they turn in to
heat
a disturbance of energy from one place to another
a wave
Is clean energy cheaper
no
