| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| what is the top of a wave called | crest |
| what is the bottom of a wave called | the trough |
| how long between a wave is called | wavelength |
| If a wave has a higher pitch the waves are ________ together, and the waves are usually ____________. | closer, higher |
| If a wave has a lower pitch the waves are ________ , and the waves are usually ____________. | farther apart, lower |
| Do waves Repeat in patterns or do they occur randomly | The stay in patterns. extra: they repeat in patterns because the parts of he wave repeat loudness. |
| Determines the amount of energy | amplitude |
| Determines the pitch | Freaquency |
| As wavelength increases | frequency |
| Pitch and frequency are the same by..... | thy both determine the pitch |
| Were douse sound travel faster? by a solid or by a liquid | solid |
| sound douse not travel in | a vacuum or space |
| when partials in a wave are spread out it's called | Rarefaction |
| When particles of a wave or close together its called | compression |
| Frequency is measured in | hertz or hz |
| how dose sound travel in a vacuum | it doesn't |
| What part of a wave determines the amount of energy it has | amplitude |
| Energy determines how ______ a sound is | loud |
| What wave on the electromagnetic spectrum has the highest amount of energy? Why douse it have the highest amount of energy? | Gama Rays, they have the highest amplitude |
| sound waves are ______ compressed and closer to the source of sound. | more |
| How is a echo created | when it bonces of a solid object |
| What is sound proofing? | when you try to absorb sound |
