Question
Answer
force   push or pull exerted on an object in order to change the motion of the object  
🗑
work   the use of force used to move an object some distance  
🗑
power   how fast you can accomplish work  
🗑
wave   waves are caused by vibrations of a medium  
🗑
medium   the material which a wave travels through  
🗑
crest   the highest point of a wave  
🗑
trough   the lowest point of a wave  
🗑
longitudinal wave   particles move back and forth in the same direction that the wave travels  
🗑
compression   when coils are pushed closer together  
🗑
rarefaction   when coils are pulled apart  
🗑
transverse waves   particles moving perpendicular  
🗑
mechanical waves   a wave that requires a medium  
🗑
electromagnetic waves   a wave that doesn't require a medium  
🗑
amplitude   a measure of how far particles in the medium move from the rest point  
🗑

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
