8th Waves Edgenuity

QuestionAnswer
Which two animals use echolocation? bats and dolphins
An ultrasound tech is trying to identify an object, but the screen of the machine is broken. Which statement best describes this situation The machine will not be able to process the received echoes into images.
What do digital signals turn sounds into? zeros and ones
Which best describes the order of the technology used to transmit a sound through the radio? microphone -> transmitter -> raidio
Sound Waves are produced when something does what? vibrate
Describe how sound waves are produced and how they travel. Medium
Identify the features of a sound wave. Wave A has a higher amplitude than Wave B
Sound Wave A is moving through a medium wave that is decreasing in temperature. Sound Wave B is moving from a liquid to a gas medium. What statement can be made about both waves They will slow down
What best describes what occurs when an object takes in a wave as the wave hits it. absorption
What do diffraction and refraction have in common? They both involve waves interactions
What is occurring when two waves traveling along the same medium meet and cancel each other out? destructive interference
What will occur when the trough of Wave A overlaps the crest of Wave B? Destructive interference will occur, causing the new wave to have less energy than Wave A or Wave B
Henri draws a wave that has a 4 cm distance between the midpoint and the trough. Geri draws a wave that has an 8 cm vertical distance from the trough to the crest. Which best describes the energy in Henri and Geri's waves? Henri's wave and Geri's wave have the same amplitude, but Geri's has more energy.
What refers to the number of wavelengths that pass a fixed point in a second? frequency
Which equation should be used to calculate the speed of a wave? speed = frequency x wavelength
The frequency of a wave does not change as it passes from one medium to another. What will most likely happen if a light wave moves from the air into a solid? The speed of the light wave will decrease
How does waves carry energy? Energy moves from one place to another through the wave
Which types of waves requires matter to carry energy? mechanical waves only
What statement can most likely be made about the shock waves of atomic bombs? They are a mechanical waves
What is an example of a transverse wave? a crowd doing the wave at a sporting event.

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.
