Welcome to 306! Today is a new marking period – a new start! DO NOW: Please write three goals you have for yourself in Integrated Science for the second marking period.
3
Do Now Chapter 11, Waves 11/28/11 1. 1. Take out 11.1,2 and 12.1,2 H/W vocab cards 2. 2. COLLECTED AND GRADED What are the 2 main types of waves
4
Do Now Chapter 11-12, Waves 11/29/11 1. 1. Take out 11.1 Chapter Review H/W 2. 2. Draw a transverse and longitudinal wave 3. 3. Show direction of particle movement in each wave
5
Types of Waves Section Section 11.1
6
Waves A A disturbance that transmits energy through matter or space
7
Waves Most Most waves move through matter matter called a medium. Ex. Ex. Waves traveling through water.
9
Types of Waves 1. Mechanical Waves a wave that requires a medium through which to travel Most type of waves Ex.Sound, seismic
10
Types of Waves 2. Electromagnetic Waves waves caused by the disturbance in electric and magnetic fields and that does not require a medium. (light radiation waves) (light radiation waves)
11
What do Waves Do? When When waves travel through media they are doing work (energy transferred). Ex. Ex. Sound traveling in your ear causes vibrates throughout your ear
13
What do Waves Do? Ex. Ex. Shock waves move the earth during an earthquake. Tsunami waves move anything in their path
15
Shock wave from breaking the sound barrior.
17
How a Wave Travels As wave travels in air, the waves spread out in spheres the sphere will get bigger and bigger as they move farther away
19
How a Wave Travels Why is it more damaging to your ears if you are standing next to a speaker rather than a 100 meters away?
20
How a Wave Travels Each sphere carries the same amount of energy But the energy is more spread out of a greater distance.
21
Speaker Sound waves
22
Vibrations and Waves Most Most waves are caused by a vibrating object, which will then cause other objects to vibrate Vibrations Vibrations will transfer energy from PE to KE.
23
Vibrations and Waves simple simple harmonic motion--vibration would continue forever Damped Damped harmonic motion transfers the energy and the vibration will fade out. Ex. Ex. Shock absorbers on cars and bikes.
25
Wave Vibration Types 1. 1. Transverse Waves -a wave that causes the particles of the medium to vibrate perpendicular to the direction of the wave. “The “The Wave” at a stadium is a good illustration. Ex. Ex. Light waves
28
Wave Vibration Types 2. 2. Longitudinal Waves -a wave that causes the particles of the medium to vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave. they they expand and compress. Ex. Ex. Sound waves
30
Wave Vibration Types 3. 3. Surface Waves -waves that are both transverse or longitudinal. -Circular motion -ex. Ocean waves
32
Wave Types Mechanical waves: -can be transverse, longitudinal, or surface waves Electromagnetic (light): -waves will only be transverse.
33
DO NOW EAWV SCCARHATRISTECI UNSCRAMBLE THE TERMS ABOVE TO FIND OUT WHAT WE ARE LEARNING ABOUT TODAY! Be Ready to hear an important message!
34
Characteristics of Waves 11.2
35
Wave Properties all transverse waves have similar shapes, no matter the size of the wave. The shape is called a sine curve or sine wave.
36
Sine Wave
37
Wave Parts Crest Highest point of a transverse wave Trough lowest point of a transverse wave
38
Wave Parts Amplitude -The vertical distance that particles vibrate from their normal position when a wave passes measures the intensity of wave. -ex.Loudness, brightness
39
Wave Parts Wavelength -The distance between any two successive identical parts of a wave Represented by the symbol lambda ( ) Measured in a degree of meters
40
Wave Diagram Wave Diagram trough Wavelength Crest Amplitude Wavelength
42
Wave Properties 1. Wavelength -measures the size of the wave
43
Wave Properties 2. Amplitude -measures the intensity (strength) of the wave
44
Wave Properties 3. Frequency -the number of full wavelengths that pass a point in a particular period of time (rate) -Represented by the symbol (ƒ) -Measured in hertz (Hz) = beat/sec -Your radio dials are in megahertz
45
Wave Properties 4. Period (time) -The time required for one full wavelength to pass a certain point -Represented by the symbol (T) -Measured in seconds
46
Wavelength High Low High
47
Frequency, wavelength, and Period Wavelength and period will increase when frequency decreases. λ ↓, T, ↓, then f ↑
48
Frequency and Period You can calculate frequency and period from each other T=1/f or f=1/T
49
Frequency and Sound We hear sounds from the range 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz determines the pitch
51
Pitch and Loudness Pitch and Loudness
52
Breaking Glass Breaking Glass
53
Frequency and Light We see light from the range 4x10 14 Hz red to 8x10 14 Hz violet Frequency determines the energy and color Red is the easiest to see, violet is the hottest (most energetic)
55
Wave Properties 5. Wave Speed -the speed at which a wave passes through a medium. -Waves travel at different speeds in different media phases (s, l, g).
56
Mechanical Wave Speed These waves travel fastest in solids and the slowest in gases Why? (essay question)
57
sonic boom
58
Light Wave Speed all electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed in empty space. (3 x 10 8 m/s) Light waves slow down as they pass through media.
60
Vocab Solutions Amplitude – greatest distance particles in a medium move from their normal position when a wave passes Wavelength – distance between any two successive identical parts of a wave Crest- highest point of a transverse wave Trough- Lowest point of a transverse wave.
61
Wave Speed Equations Speed=wavelength/period v= /T Can also use: Speed=frequency x wavelength v = f x v = f x
62
Examples A piano string vibrates with a frequency of 264 Hz. If the waves have a wavelength of 1.3 m, what is the speed of sound in air?
63
Examples v= f speed= (1.30 m) (264 Hz) speed = 343 m/s
64
Examples A string with a wavelength of 1.30 m and a period of 0.00379 s is played. What is the speed of the wave?
65
Examples V = /T speed=1.30 m/0.00379 s speed = 343 m/s
66
Doppler Effect an observed change in the frequency of a wave when the source or observer is moving Object approaches with high frequency but low wavelength, but as it passes the frequency lowers as the wavelength increases
68
Doppler effect
69
Standing Waves wave that appears not to move along the medium. two regions
70
Standing Waves Regions of no vibrations (nodes) Regions of maximum vibration (antinodes)
73
Wave Interactions 11.3
74
1. Reflection The bouncing back of a wave as it meets a surface or boundary
77
2. Diffraction When waves pass through an opening or by an edge the bend around the edge or expand as they pass through the opening.
80
3. Refraction The bending of waves as they pass from one medium to another
81
Refraction Air to water is an example Ex. Spoon seeming to bend when placed in water
84
4. Interference The combination of two or more waves that exist in the same place at the same time. Once waves pass, they return to original shape
85
Interference Two types: 1. Constructive 2. destructive
86
Constructive Interference The crests of wave line up to combine their amplitudes making the wave larger. Wave becomes bigger
87
Constructive Interference The new wave is bigger than the original when waves combine
89
Destructive Interference When crest of one wave meets the trough of another wave Forms a smaller wave than the original
92
Interference of Light Waves When light waves interfere with each other, colorful displays are produced. Soap bubbles
94
Interference of Sound Waves When two waves with different frequencies interfere with each other, beats are produced
