I'm not a watch, but I'm a unit of time for one oscillation.
What is the period?
100
This is the highest part of a transverse wave, not toothpaste.
What is a crest?
100
The maximum distance the particles of a medium move away from their rest positions as a wave passes through the medium.
What is amplitude?
100
This is a necessary piece in the sound puzzle. Without it, there wouldn't be anything to create the sound.
What is a source?
100
In order to increase the pitch on this instrument, you need to use the frets and shorten the length of the string.
What is a guitar?
200
What is the pendulum position where the velocity is zero and the force is greatest?
The maximum displacement
200
The lowest part of a transverse wave.
What is a trough?
200
This occurs when two waves collide and add together.
What is constructive interference?
200
If I increase this value in a string, the pitch (frequency) will increase.
What is the tension?
200
My primary purpose is for scientific experiments in acoustics. I am a room filled with cones that absorb all the sound.
What is an anechoic chamber?
300
I'm not very massive, but I'm the only thing the period of a pendulum is dependent upon.
What is the length?
300
They type of wave where the particles are packed together and move horizontally.
What is a compression wave?
300
The number of complete waves or oscillations that pass a given point in a certain amount of time.
What is frequency?
300
An ambulance driving past you is an easy example of this phenomenon. It occurs when the effective distance between the source and the receiver is changed.
What is the Doppler Effect?
300
All sound waves are this type of wave.
What is a compression wave?
400
At this point, the kinetic energy is at a maximum and the potential energy is at a minimum.
What is the equilibrium position?
400
This type of wave occurs when the matter moves perpendicular to the motion of the wave.
What is a transverse wave?
400
Unit of measurement for frequency.
What is a hertz (Hz)?
400
This effects both tubes and strings. When you increase this value, you are increasing wavelength and decreasing the pitch.
What is length?
400
I am a type of speaker that is used for low frequencies and bass tones.
What is a subwoofer?
500
In a spring, this value increases as the spring is stretched.
What is the restoring force?
500
To measure me, there must be one complete crest and one complete trough.
What is a wavelength?
500
This is a requirement for a wave to travel. Without it, there would not be any particles to move.
What is a medium?
500
The increase in the amplitude of a vibration that occurs when external vibrations match an object’s natural frequency.
What is resonance?
500
There are two types of tubes... I am the one with the higher pitch.
