Types Of Waves
Parts Of The Waves
Wave Measurement & Math
Wave Interactions
100
True or false, waves transfer matter?
False, it transfers energy only
100
what type of Waves are these? (hint: Name two waves.)
These are transverse waves and longitudinal waves.
100
How are the Crest and trough a like?
The Crest is at the peak of the wave and the trough is at the bottom of the wave.
100
What is the frequency in a wave?
Wave frequency is how many waves pass in one second.
100
How does reflection, refraction and diffraction work together?
They all have to use light like this example
200
True or False, waves can create vibration
True
200
what types Of waves are these? (hint: Name two types of waves)
These are mechanical and sound waves because both go through a medium like air, water and sound.
200
What is wavelength?
The wavelength is the distance between two Crest.
200
What is wave speed?
Wave speed is how fast a wave travels through a medium.
200
How does a red apple become red?
Because the light from the sun has ROYGBIV and all the colors go to the apple and get absorbs and only that color, like red reflects off and goes to your eye.
300
True or False, waves can have mediums?
True! a wave medium is the material substance
300
what Part of the wave is the compression at? (Hint: Name how close the particles are together.)
The compression happens at the lines where they are closest together.
300
What is amplitude in a wave?
 Amplitude is the length between peak of the Crest and the middle line.
300
What are Hertz?
Hertz is the measurement used to measure the frequency.
300
What is the type of wave called that light passes through glass?
Transmission!
400
True or False, waves all these waves can transfer energy?
True!
400
what part of the wave is where rarefaction occurs?
rarefaction happens where the lines are spread apart.
400
How does more amplitude increase the energy
By increasing amplitude the energy increases by bigger waves equal more energy.
400
The answer is 48m/s
400
What is the law of reflection?
If a lasser was shinning at mirror at 45 degrees it will shine at 45 degrees past the normal line.
500
True or False, radios use waves?
True! they use radio waves to transfer sound.
500
How are transverse waves and longitudinal waves simular?
The two types of waves transfer energy.
500
True or false Mr.wilson is the best teacher?
True because he's funny.
500
What do frequency, wavelength and wave speed have in common in a transverse wave?
Transverse waves have all these in common because they all use the same formula.
500
if A laser was shined at a mirror at 60 degrees past the normal line, what would the angle be past the other side of the normal line?
60 degrees
