1 1. Review: what are the parameters of a wave?
crest wavelength amplitude trough

2 2. Three Types of waves Longitudinal  particle motion is parallel
Transverse  particle motion is perpendicular

3 Surface  only on surface – particle motion is circular

4 What does frequency change sound like?
3. Sound waves As intensity (amplitude) is increased then the sound gets ___________________. As frequency is increased then the sound gets _______________________. louder Higher pitched What does frequency change sound like?

5 4. Doppler Effect Change in frequency of a wave due to relative motion between source and observer. A sound wave frequency change is noticed as a change in pitch.

7 Stationary Sound Source
Moving Sound Source Direction of movement Expanded = lower frequency Compressed = higher frequency

8 5. Doppler Effect for Light Waves
Change in frequency of a wave due to relative motion between source and observer. A light wave change in frequency is noticed as a change in “color”. The Doppler Effect will cause shifts in frequency causing color shifts as: Object coming toward = Blue Shift Object moving away = Red Shift

10 6. Electromagnetic Spectrum
Let’s watch the video and fill in our notes as we go!

11 8. Speed of light Given: c= 300,000,000m/s l = 3.0 m Rearrange:
c = l f speed of light = wavelength x frequency c = 300,000,000 m/s A radio station broadcasts a radio wave with a wavelength of 3.0 meters. What is the frequency of the wave? Given: c= 300,000,000m/s l = 3.0 m Rearrange: c = l f f = c/l Plug & Solve: f = 300,000,000/3 f = 100,000,000 Hz

12 9. Complete the practice questions and we will review them.
Then you can begin on your homework! Directed readings 18.1/18.2
