Define a longitude wave

A longitude is a wave in which particles of the medium move in a direction parallel to the direction that the wave moves.

100

A wave that moves in a perpendicular direction to the direction that the wave moves.

A transverse wave 

100

 A single disturbance that moves from point to point through a medium is called a ___.

A pulse

100

A wave with a frequency of 14 Hz has a wavelength of 3 meters.  

At what speed will this wave travel?

V= 42 m/s


V=14 Hz x 3 M


42 m/s = 14 Hz X 3 M

How are you suppose to enter the room ?

Quietly ready to learn.

Prepared with all materials for class.

Define a transverse wave

A transverse wave is in which particles of the medium move in a direction perpendicular to the direction that the wave moves.

200

A wave that is not capable of transmitting its energy through a vacuum. 

A mechanical wave

200

 If the particles of the medium are vibrating to and fro in the same direction of energy transport, then the wave is a ____ wave.

A longitude

200

A wave has a frequency of 900 Hz and a wavelength of 200 m.  


At what speed is this wave traveling?

V= 900 Hz X 200 M

900 Hz X 200 M =180000 m/s

V= 180000

180000 m/s = 900 Hz X 200 M

Where are you to sit?

In assigned seat 

Or any seat that available

300

Define a electromagnetic wave

A electromagnetic wave that is capable of transmitting its energy through a vacuum.

300

A wave in which particles of the medium move in a direction parallel to the direction that the wave moves.

A longitude wave

300

When the particles of a medium are vibrating at right angles to the direction of energy transport, then the wave is a ____ wave.

A transverse 

300

A wave has a frequency of 46 Hz and a wavelength of 1.7 meters. 


 What is the speed of this wave?

V= 78.2


V= 46 Hz X 1.7 M

78.2 m/s = 46 Hz X 1.7 M

300

True or False

Are you suppose to listen to  teachers Instructions?

True

Define a mechanical wave

A mechanical wave is a wave that is not capable of transmitting its energy through a vacuum. 


400

A wave that is capable of transmitting its energy through a vacuum.

A electromagnetic wave

400

 The main factor which effects the speed of a sound wave is the ____.

Properties of the medium 

400

A wave has a wavelength of 125 meters is moving at a speed of 20 m/s.  


What is its frequency?

20 m/s =F  X  125 M

20 m/s  /  125 M = 0.16 Hz

F= 0.16 Hz

400

How many jokes do you get a day?

Every one gets 1 joke a day to minimize horseplay. 

500

Define a surface wave

A surface wave is in which particles of the medium undergo a circular motion.

500

A is in which particles of the medium undergo a circular motion.

A surface wave
500

Many wave properties are dependent upon other wave properties. Yet, one wave property is independent of all other wave properties. Which one of the following properties of a wave is independent of all the others?

a. wavelength  b. frequency  c. period  d. velocity

 


   D. Velocity

Radio waves travel at a speed of 300,000,000 m/s. WFNX broadcasts radio waves at a frequency of 101,700,000 Hertz. 


What is the wavelength of WFNX’s radio waves?

300,000,000 m/s = 101,700,000 Hz  X  M

300,000,000 m/s   / 101,700,000 Hz = M

M= 29.4985          M= 29.5


300,000,000m/s = 101,700,000 Hz  X  29.5 M
