Vocabulary - $100 The vocabulary word for ANY disturbance that transmits energy through matter or empty space!
Vocabulary - $200 I am the vocabulary word for a substance (solid, liquid or gas) through which a wave can travel.
Vocabulary- $300 I am the vocabulary word for a wave in which the particles vibrate back and forth ( that means parallel) along the path of that wave.
Vocabulary- $400 The vocabulary word for a wave in which the particles of the medium vibrate in an up-and-down motion
Vocabulary- $500 The vocabulary word for a wave that DOES NOT require a medium.
Properties of a Wave - $100 The highest point of a transverse wave is called: a.) an Amplitude b. a Trough c.) a Crest d.) a Wave Length
Properties of a Wave - $200 The lowest point of a transverse wave is called: a.) an Amplitude b. a Trough c.) a Crest d.) a Wave Length
Properties of a Wave - $300 I am the number of waves produced in a given amount of time. a.) Amplitude b.) Frequency c.) Crest d.) Wave Length
Vocabulary - $400 I am the maximum distance that the particles of a wave’s medium vibrate from their rest position. a.) Amplitude b.) Frequency c.) Crest d.) Wave Length
Properties of a Wave - $500 The distance from any point on a wave to an identical point on the next wave. a.) Amplitude b.) Frequency c.) Crest d.) Wave Length
True or False - $100 True or False Longitudinal Wave and Transverse Waves are exactly the same!
True or False - $200 True or False The amplitude can measure the distance from the rest position to the trough of a wave
True or False - $300 True or False A mechanical wave does require a medium through which to travel.
True or False - $400 True or False Both waves shown last one second. Wave “A” has a higher frequency then wave “B” “A” “B”
True or False - $500 True or False The wave in the picture is showing an example of Refraction!
Wave Interactions - $100 The bouncing back of a ray of light, sound, or heat when the ray hits a surface that it does not go through a.) interference b.) reflection c.) refraction d.) diffraction
Wave Interactions - $200 When the crests of one wave overlap the crests of another wave creating a larger wave, that is called (constructive / destructive) interference
Wave Interactions - $300 When the crests of one wave overlap the troughs of another wave that is called (constructive / destructive) interference
Wave Interactions - $400 A phenomenon that occurs when two objects naturally vibrate at the same frequency. a.) reflection b.) refraction c.) diffraction d.) resonance
Wave Interactions - $500 A change in the direction of a wave when the wave finds an obstacle or an edge, such as an opening. a.) reflection b.) refraction c.) diffraction d.) resonance
Wave Properties 2 - $100 This picture shows an example of a.) reflection b.) refraction c.) diffraction
Wave Properties 2 - $200 This picture shows an example of a.) reflection b.) refraction c.) diffraction
