100

Distance between the starting point to the peak or valley.

Amplitude

100

Movement of an object back and forth past its starting position

Vibration 

100

Bend or change shape.

Deform

100

Pitch goes hand and hand with this.

Frequency

100

These are the 3 states of matter.

Solid, Liquid, Gas

200

The number of peaks or valleys per second.

Frequency

200

Strength or energy as an attribute of physical action or movement

Force

200

To turn or force from straight or even to curved or angular.

Bend

200

Volume goes hand and hand with this.

Amplitude 

200

This is transferred to an object after force is applied.

Energy

300

The distance from one Peak/crest to another or from one Valley/trough to another.

Wavelength

300

This is the pattern of disturbance caused by the movement of energy traveling through a medium (such as air, water or any other liquid or solid matter) as it spreads away from the source of the sound.

Sound Waves 

300

Having an elastic quality; to spring back quickly when squeezed or stretched.

Springy

300

The energy of an object because it is in motion.

Kinetic Energy

300

When an object repeats back and forth until it stops it is called this.

Vibration 

400

A measure of how high or low something sounds.

Pitch

400

The ability to do work, which is the ability to exert a force causing displacement of an object

Energy

400

(of an object or material) able to resume its normal shape spontaneously after contraction, dilation or distortion

Elastic 

400

Sound waves are created by what 2 things?

Pressure Waves and Vibration 

400

When force is removed from an object it does this.

Springs back and overshoots its starting point.

500

This is a measure of how loud or soft something sounds.

Volume 

500

The movement of energy from one object to another.

Transfer Energy

500

The energy of an object that has yet to be released.

Potential Energy 

500

The STRENGTH of vibrations is related to this.

Volume

500

When force is applied to the drum, the drum does this.

Bends and deforms past the starting point.
