1
Warm-up Be ready for class, pick up the answer sheet and waves reflection sheet. Staple and put your name on it. Our next unit is waves on the back of your answer sheet… Predict: What is a wave? Read the global connection and list some ways that you are or could be affected by waves everyday.
2
Warm-up Review your matter assessment and write down any questions you have and which learning objective you scored the highest on.
3
Warm-up Pick up your waves pre-test. Finish creating your bars for each objective and list your score and 3 things to be successful. Also look at your prediction of what a wave is from yesterday.
4
Warm-up Be ready for class, quiet and in your seat.
List today’s date above your warm-up. Write the essential questions and objective for today from the board. Can you answer any of the questions? Today you will finish the pre-knowledge check & create flash cards for your new vocabulary.
5
Warm-up Be ready for class, no talking when the bell rings.
Pick up the notes handout from the front table and put your name on it. What is a wave? (use your flash cards or vocabulary handout).
6
WARM-UP What is the main difference between an electromagnetic and a mechanical wave (use your notes from last week)?
7
Warm-up What is a wave? What do waves transfer? What are the two types of waves? Have your booklet ready to turn in if I have not graded it yet.
8
Write homework in your agenda.
Warm-up Write homework in your agenda. Pick up a Bill Nye Question sheet from the front table.
9
Warm-up Describe the differences between reflection, refraction and diffraction. Give an example of each.
10
Warm-up Open your textbook to the page needed (from your rubric)
Take out your waves booklet. Continue to work and raise your hand if you need help, only whispering with your table partner while you work. Do not leave your seat w/o my permission, if you are finished ask me for the next assignment (or start your homework).
11
Warm-up Be ready for class, have a pencil, your wave notes and your booklet out. Look over notes-today you will complete the open notes waves assessment, remember the equation for wave speed is multiplication. When finished preview the sound chapter in the textbook (section C) page C35-C65
12
Goal for this unit: Explain that earthquakes, light and sound are all types of waves with unique properties and that there are differences and similarities between electromagnetic and mechanical waves. Pre-knowledge Level: ?/33 Please write three actions you plan to do to be successful in this unit: Ask for help when needed, review notes and handouts on a regular basis, focus in class.
13
The Energy of Waves Learning Goals:
Describe how waves transfer energy. Describe the difference between transverse & longitudinal waves. Describe the properties of amplitude, wavelength, and frequency. Compare the properties of waves to the wavelike property of energy in earthquakes, light, and sound. Describe how waves interact through reflection, refraction, diffraction.
14
Essential questions What is a wave? What is a medium?
What is the difference between a longitudinal and transverse wave? What are the properties of a wave? What behaviors do all waves have in common? What is the difference between reflection, refraction, and diffraction?
15
Nature of Waves Wave—any disturbance (movement) that transfers energy through _______ or empty ________. (Mechanical) Waves move energy by ____________ __________in a medium. Medium—a substance a wave can travel through; it can be__________________. Characteristics of Waves: Sound waves matter space vibrating particles solid, liquid, or gas
16
Nature of Waves Waves that need a medium to move are called _________ ______________Examples: _____________ Seismic waves (earthquakes) Waves that do NOT need a medium are called _________ __________ ___ Examples: _______ ______ Microwaves x-rays T.V. & radio waves electromagnetic waves mechanical waves Sound waves Visible light Ocean waves a8qi5X8 ocean wave animation
17
Types of waves All waves transfer ________ by repeated _______________. _______________waves—particles vibrate in an ________________motion while the energy moves across. energy vibrations Transverse up-and-down Particles Energy rope example slow motion
18
___________ wave—the particles of the medium vibrate back and forth in the same direction the wave energy is moving. ____________ —part of a longitudinal wave where the particles are crowded (pressed) together Longitudinal Compression Particles & Energy

20
Properties of waves Amplitude—(wave height) distance from the rest position to the crest or trough Large amplitude=more energy crest rest position trough
21
Wavelength —the distance from any point on a wave to an identical point on the next wave. (crest to crest, trough to trough, compression to compression, rarefaction to rarefaction) Shorter wavelength=more energy
22
Higher frequency= higher energy
Frequency —the number of _________ passing through an area in one _______, measured in _______ (Hz) waves second Hertz 1 Hertz = 1 wave per second 5 waves in 1 second= 5 Hz Higher frequency= higher energy Wave speed— speed at which a wave travels =frequency x wavelength Low frequency-few waves Per second Higher frequency—more Waves per second 1 second
23
Wave property animations
Wave motion: change frequency, wavelength etc… Characteristics of Waves: Amplitude, Wavelength and Frequency
24
Wave Interactions Reflection ___________—when a wave _______ __ _ _ _____after hitting a barrier it can’t go through. bounces back All types of waves can be reflected Example: ______ —a reflected sound wave, sonar echo Light waves reflected off an object allow you to see it. surface
25
White light bends to form a rainbow
_________—the ________ of light waves as they pass through from one medium to another at an angle. Refraction bending When a wave passes from one medium to another, it’s speed and wavelength changes so it _________. Examples: White light bends to form a rainbow bends
26
_________—the change in direction of a wave as it bends around a barrier or opening
Resonance—when two objects vibrate at the same frequency; one object causes _____________________. Diffraction another object to vibrate interactive wave disturbance tutorial
27
A resonating object absorbs energy from the vibrating object and begins to vibrate too.
The 4 month old bridge collapsed during a windstorm with gusts that reached 68 km/h (42 mph). The catastrophe was attributed to faulty design. Instead of allowing the wind to pass through, the suspended girders caught the wind, causing the bridge to buck and roll. The bucking motion earned the bridge the nickname Galloping Gertie. The stronger the wind blew, the more violently the structure oscillated, until it finally broke apart and crashed into the water.
28
Label the wave parts 1 second 0 seconds Type of wave: Longitudinal
Frequency: ____ Hertz 3 wavelength __________ amplitude Type of wave: Transverse Frequency: ____ Hertz __________ 3.5 wavelength ___________
