A Wave is a disturbance that transfers energy from place to place.Back to Menu

What are two types natural disasters that create powerful waves (one leads to the other)

Transverse is like a rope.

Longitudinal is like a slinky.Back to Menu

Draw and diagram a transverse wave. There are 3 primary parts that should be labeled.

Waves are created when a source causes a medium to vibrate. A Medium is material that a wave can travel through.Back to MenuWhat are two kinds of Interference? Explain them.DAILY DOUBLE!

What is the picture below an example of?

Explain how waves are created and give an example. What is a Medium?7What is Frequency and what is its unit? Draw an example of two waves: one with high frequency, one with low.Show how Biff can hear Buff from around the corner. What is this called?What is this video an example of? Explain.

What is sound? Explain, step by step, how we hear it. Use a tuning fork as an example.

Frequency, measured in Hertz (Hz) is the number of waves that pass in a certain amount of time.Back to Menu

High FrequencyLowDefine Amplitude. How is a bow an example?Explain what this picture represents and how it occurs.

Finish the equations:

???While walking down the street, you notice an ambulance approaching. How does the sound of the siren change, why, and what is this called?

As a ___1___ passes from one ____2____ to another, it slows down. This causes it bend or _____3_____ . ____4____ occurs when a wave cannot pass through an object. The more waves that pass a point in a given time, the higher the ____5____ , which is measured in __6__ . Wave with the same ____7____ can amplify one another, causing _____8_____ interference.603010m/s2 wavelengthmediumconstructiveRarefactionrefractwaveHzdiffractReflection frequencydestructive

Back to MenuDiffraction and ReflectionReflectionDiffraction

Back to MenuDiffraction: when a wave passes a barrier or opening, it bends and spreads out.

Refraction, which is the bending of waves when the go from one medium to another. Changes the speed of the wave.Back to MenuFinal Jeopardy

Interference.

Back to Menu

Constructive (amplifies the sound) and Destructive (smaller amplitude).Back to Menu

Resonance occurs when vibrations traveling through an object match the objects natural frequencyBack to Menu

Constructive Destructive

Final Jeopardy

Back to Menu

Back to MenuAn Earthquake creates seismic waves. An underwater earthquake can trigger a Tsunami.

Back to Menu

Retroreflection

Back to MenuSound is created by Vibrations. When you strike the tuning fork, it vibrates. The fork hits nearby air molecules, giving them the energy from the fork. Those molecules hit other, which hit others like dominos! Finally, it reaches your ear.

Final JeopardyBack to Menu

Doppler Effect means the pitch is higher as the object approaches (sound waves pile up closer), and lower as it passes (waves spread out).

STOPAs a wave passes from one medium to another, it slows down. This causes it bend or refract. Reflection occurs when a wave cannot pass through an object. The more waves that pass a point in a given time, the higher the frequency, which is measured in Hz. Wave with the same wavelength can amplify one another, causing constructive interference.Back to Menu
