The meanings of mass and weight can often be confused. Which is an example of a change in both mass and weight? A.visiting the Moon B.a stone eroding in a river C.living on the space station D.a ship floating on the ocean

9. Sarah has 100 g of each element listed in the chart below, which also provides the melting point for each element. What would happen if she melted only 50 g of each element? A.The melting point for each element would double because the mass was changed. B.The melting point for each element would decrease by half because the mass was changed. C.The melting process would occur more quickly, but the melting points would remain the same. D.The melting process would occur more quickly, but the melting points would be decreased by half.

11. Which substances are most likely made of the same material? A. 1 and 3B. 1 and 4 C. 2 and 3D. 2 and 4

DO NOW  Take out a half sheet of paper (Quietly share with a neighbor)  Number it from 1-10  Answer the questions on the handout.  Once done, Start a new chapter in your ISN  Label the new chapter “WAVES” with today’s date. (DO NOT WRITE ON IT!!)

WAVES Essential Questions:  What is a wave?  How do waves travel?  What are the types of waves?  What are the properties of waves?  What are 4 types of wave interactions?

Day 1  The Nature of Waves

What are Waves?

What is a WAVE?  A wave is any disturbance that transfers energy through matter.  Waves only carry energy, not matter!  Once the wave has moved, the disturbance is gone. The energy carried by ocean waves can break rocks.

How do waves travel?  A wave must have MATTER to travel through.  The matter through which a wave travels is called a MEDIUM

Mechanical Waves Examples of Mechanical Waves:  sound  air  water  ropes  earthquakes  tsunami waves Mechanical Waves need a medium to travel through. Mechanical Waves can be either Transverse or Longitudinal

Electromagnetic Waves Examples of Electromagnetic Waves:  x-rays  radio waves  infrared radiation  microwaves  visible light Electromagnetic Waves do NOT need a medium to travel through.

Electromagnetic Waves Electromagnetic Waves are ALWAYS transverse waves.

Transverse Waves  waves in which the particles vibrate in an up and down motion ex: light waves

Transverse Wave

Longitudinal Waves  waves in which the particles vibrate back and forth along the path that the wave moves. ex: sound waves

Longitudinal Waves Carry energy along the wave

Day 2 Properties of Waves

Properties of Waves: Amplitude Wave Length Frequency Wave Speed

Amplitude  wave height  larger amplitude = more energy

Wavelength  distance between 2 crests or troughs  shorter wave length = more energy

Frequency (Hertz / Hz)  the number of waves produced in a given amount of time  higher frequency = more energy

Wave Speed  speed at which waves travel through a medium

Properties of a wave

Day 3 WAVE INTERACTIONS

Reflection  Waves reflect after hitting a barrier.  all waves can be reflected.  a wave can also be transmitted through a substance.  Reflection – happens when a wave bounces back after hitting a barrier.

Refraction  Refraction – is the bending of a wave as the wave passes from one medium to another at an angle.

Diffraction  The bending of waves around a barrier or through an opening is known as diffraction.

Interference Interference happens when waves overlap  Constructive: amplitude increases  Destructive: amplitude decreases

Resonance Resonance – vibration produced in one object that is caused by the vibration produced in another
