Parts of a Wave
The top of the wave
What is crest?
The part of EM spectrum we can see
What is visible light?
Sound waves require this to travel in
Light waves move up and down and are these types of waves
What is transverse?
This dark circle in your eye lets in light
What is pupil?
The distance from one crest to another
What is wavelength?
The longest waves in the EM spectrum
What is radio?
Sound waves move as a compression or also known as this side to side movement
What is longitudinal?
We see green grass because green is
What is reflected?
This drum takes sound waves and makes vibrations
What is eardrum?
The lowest part of a wave
What is trough?
The shortest waves with the highest frequency
What is gamma?
If you raise the amplitude you raise the
What is volume?
T/F Light waves need a medium to travel through
What is false?
The Eustachian tube regulates
What is pressure?
The number of wavelengths per second
What is frequency
T/F EM spectrum does not require a medium
What is true?
If you shorten the wavelength you increase the
What is pitch?
Light waves are part of this spectrum
What is EM spectrum?
This muscle opens and closes the pupil. Hint also comes in colors
What is iris?
The measure of height of a wave
What is amplitude?
All waves transmit this
What is energy?
Sound waves are classified as this because they require a medium
What are mechanical waves?
All light waves transmit this
What is energy?
This focuses light in the eye
What is lens?
