| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Speed | The rate at which an object moves, equal to the distance traveled per time interval. |
| Distance | The length measured between two points. |
| TimeInterval | The time between two events |
| Velocity | Speed in a given direction |
| Rate Ex. Speed is the ratio of distance of time | A ratio of two different kinds of measurement. |
| Amplitude | The distance from the line of origin to a crest through the wave |
| Wavelength | The distance between two consecutive crests |
| Line of origin | Signifies the original position of the medium |
| Trough | The lowest point of the wave below the line of origin |
| Crest | The highest point of the wave above the line of origin |
| Solid | The closest particals can be with a definite shape or volume |
| Liquid | The particals that don't have a definite shape but has a definite volume |
| Gas | Particals without a definite shape or volume |
| Decibel | Unit used to measure the intensity of time |
| Tone quality | Difference among sound that have the same pitch and loudness. |
