WAVE Visualization—Draw the image you have in your mind of a wave. Association – What is it like? Synonyms? Examples? Definition—What is the technical or literal meaning of the word? Context – Write acomplete sentence using the word in its correct context.
3
A disturbance in matter that carries energy from one place to another.
4
Material through which a wave travels
5
The highest point of a transverse wave
6
The lowest point of a transverse wave
7
A wave that causes the medium to vibrate at right angles to the direction in which the wave travels
8
An area of longitudinal wave where the particles of the medium are close together.
9
An area of longitudinal wave where the particles of the medium are spread out.
10
A wave in which the vibration of the medium is parallel to the direction the wave travels.
11
A wave that travels along a surface separating two media.
12
Any motion that repeats at regular time intervals.
13
Time required for one wave to pass.
14
The number of complete waves that pass per second.
15
Unit used to measure frequency of a wave.
16
The distance between a point on a wave and the same point on the next wave.
17
The maximum height of a wave.
18
The interaction that occurs when a wave bounces off a surface that it cannot pass through.
19
The bending of a wave as it enters a new medium at an angle.
20
The bending of a wave as it moves around an obstacle or passes through a narrow opening.
21
The interaction of two or more waves that combine in a region of overlap.
22
The interaction between two or more waves in which displacements combine to produce a wave with larger displacement.
23
The interaction between two or more waves in which displacements combine to produce a wave with a smaller displacement.
24
A wave that appears to stay in one place and does not seem to move through the medium.
25
A point on a standing wave with no displacement from rest.
26
A point of maximum displacement midway between two nodes in a standing wave.
27
A longitudinal wave consisting of compressions and rarefactions, which travels through a medium.
28
The rate at which a wave’s energy flows through a given unit of area.
29
A unit that compares the intensities of different sounds.
30
A physical response to the intensity of sound, modified by physical factors.
31
The frequency of a sound as the listener perceives it.
32
A technique for determining the distance to an object under water.
33
A change in sound frequency caused by motion of the sound source, motion of the listener, or both.
34
The response of a standing wave to another wave of the same frequency, with dramatic increase in amplitude of the standing wave.
