A collision that conserves both momentum and kinetic energy
What is an elastic collision?
The transfer of heat through touch
What is conduction?
The highest and the lowest point of a wave
What are the crest and trough?
A wave with a frequency of 2 Hz and a wavelength of 2 m has a velocity of
What is 4 m/s?
Waves change direction due to bouncing off a barrier
What is reflection?
A collision that only conserves the momentum and not the kinetic energy
What is an Inelastic collision?
Hot air rises over a fire to warm your hands
What is convection?
Is the measurement from the line of equilibrium to the the highest or the lowest point of a wave
What is amplitude?
A wave travels 20 meters in 2 seconds and the velocity of the wave is
Waves bend as they transition through different mediums
What is refraction?
A force of 4 N is applied for 0.5 seconds to change an objects momentum. The impulse is
The transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves
What is radiation?
What is a transverse wave?
A wave with a frequency of 40 Hz and a velocity of 20m/s has a wavelength of
Waves spread as they pass through openings or through corners
What is diffraction?
A force of 30 newtons is applied to an object for 4 seconds so the change in momentum is
What is 120 Newton seconds?
What is entropy?
The oscillations of the wave are parallel to that of the direction of the wave energy
What is a longitudinal wave?
The velocity of a wave is 20 m/s and it traveled for 2 seconds, the total distance it traveled is
An ambulance siren sounds louder as it gets closer to you.
What is the doppler effect?
A book falls to the ground and loses kinetic energy so the collision was
What is an inelastic collision?
You place your sprained ankle in ice water, the water gains it while your ankle loses it
What is thermal energy?
Light waves are capable of traveling through a vacuum
What is an electromagnetic wave?
The echo of a sound wave traveling 340 m/s is heard 0.5 seconds after, so the distance of the wall is
The water in a glass begins to vibrate while you have a loud speaker on full blast.
What is resonance?
