Energy Reciever The object that gains energy transferred to it.
Wave A countinuous succession os pulses.
Transversal Wave A wave in which the motion of the material (Medium) is perpendicular to the motion of the wave.
Amplitude The Height of the wave crest. It is related to a waves's energy.
Wavelength The distance between identical points along a wave.
Frequency The number of waves Produced per unit time.
Compression (Longitudinal) Wave A wave in which the motion of the material (medum) is parallel to the direction of the motion of the wave.
Pitch The quality of a sound depends mostly on the frequency of the sound wave.
Ultrasound Compression of the wave at much higher frequency of the sound wave.
Fault A fracture in rock along which the rock masses have moved.
Earthquake A sudden motion or shaking of the earth.
P Wave A seismic wave that involves motion in the direction in which it is traveling; it is the fastest of seismic waves. It is the first to come.
S Wave A seismic wave that involves vibration perpendicular to the direction the wave is traveling; it arrives after the P Wave.
L Wave A seismic wave that travels along the earth; they are the last to arrive at a location.
Seismograph An instument that detects seismic waves.
Tsunami A great surface wave on the ocean produced by an earthquake or volcanic eruption on the ocean floor.
Mechanical Energy The energy transfer involved in an interaction that causes one of both objects to change position.
Constant Speed Neither speeding up nor slowing down.
Linear Relationship The relationship between two quantities that, when plotted against eachother on a graph, produce a straight line.
Slope A tilt or slant of a straight line on a graph; the rise devided by the run.
Average Speed The distance traveled devided by the time taken.
Non Collinear Relationship The relationship between two quantities that ,when plotted against each other on a graph, do not produce a straight line.
Velocity How fast an object is moving in a given direction.
Acceleration The change in velocity per unit time.
Energy -Causes interactions.-Ability to do work or cause change.
Potential Energy Stored Energy.
Kenetic Energy Energy in motion.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
