| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Mecianichle waves only travel through | mediums |
| meduims are the______ that waves travel through | matter |
| mediums can be _______ ___________ __________ | solids liquids and gases |
| as waves spread out they decrease in | intensity |
| the high point of a transverse wave | crest |
| the low point of transverse waves | trough |
| The position that a medium takes if there were no wave through it is | rest position |
| the region where particles are closer together in a longitudinal wave | compression |
| the region where particles are spread apart in a longitudinal wave | rarefaction |
| Amplitude is the maximum distance a wave moves from its | rest position |
| what do you do to find energy | amplitude squared |
| _______ is one point on a wave to the same point on the next wave | Wavelength |
| Frequency of a wave is the number of times the pattern ____ in a give time | repeats |
| the ______ a object vibrates the waves will have a _____ frequency | faster, higher |
| for example a freqency of 2 hz means that ______wavelengths pass the same point each ____ | two, second |
| pitch is how _______ or _______ a sound is | high or low |
| reflection is the _____ of a wave of a surface | bouncing |
| absorption is the _______ of energy by a wave to the medium through which it travels | transfer |
| soft barriers _____ waves hard surfaces ________ waves | absorb, Reflect |
| diffraction is the ______in direction of which a wave travels by the _____ of an object | Change, edge |
| in a gas tempiture increases speed because particles ____ more | increases ,move |
| in a liquid temputare decreases speed becuase particles are ________ together | incrases, closer |
