100
This type of wave does not require a medium
What is electromagnetic
100
the distance from one crest to the next
What is wavelength
100
the time required for one full wavelength to pass by
What is period
100
a wave bouncing off a surface and returning
What is relection
100
surface waves move particles in __________
What are circles
200
in this wave, particle motion is perpendicular to wave motion.
What is transverse wave
200
the distance from the starting position to the crest or trough of a wave
What is amplitude
200
1 divided by the period, Hz
What is frequency
200
a wave bending around an object or corner
What is diffraction
200
The doppler effect is caused by an apparent change in _______
frequency
300
in this wave, particle motion is parallel to wave motion
What is longitudinal wave
300
the top point of a transverse wave
What is a crest
300
v in the equation v=d/t
What is wavespeed
300
waves bending as they pass from one medium to another
What is refraction
300
waves that do not move
What are standing waves
400
a rock droped into water will produce this type of wave
What is mechanical
400
the bottom part of a transverse wave
What is the trough
400
the f in v=f * d
What is frequency
400
the combination of two or more waves
What is interference
400
the point of no vibration in a standing wave
What is the node
500
This is what causes most waves
What is vibration
500
the part of a longitudinal wave where the waves are spread out
What is rarefaction
500
The symbol used for wavelength ( i will take the name or the drawn symbol)
What is lamda
500
The difference between constructive and destructive interference.
constructive = waves becoming larger destructive = waves becoming smaller
500
the point of maximum vibration in a standing wave
What is the antinode
