---|---|---|---|---|---|
A wave is a | distrubance that transfers energy from one place to another.
🗑
|
||||
Water that moves up and down traveling in a wave is known as a | disturbance which is transferring energy.
🗑
|
||||
Forces | can start disturbances that send waves through a materail. Examples: ropes, water and earthquakes.
🗑
|
||||
Mediums | substances which waves move through.
🗑
|
||||
Sound waves move through | air.
🗑
|
||||
Mechanical waves | move energy through matter
🗑
|
||||
Water, the ground, rope and air are all made up of | matter.
🗑
|
||||
Light is a wave that transfer energy | through empty space.
🗑
|
||||
Waves caused by an earthquake are good examples of | energy transfer
🗑
|
||||
Longitudinal waves travel | in the same direction as the disturbance.
🗑
|
||||
Transverse waves travel | perpendicular to the direction of the wave.
🗑
|
||||
Waves have | amplitude, wavelength and frequency.
🗑
|
||||
Crest | highest point of a wave
🗑
|
||||
Trough | lowest point of a wave
🗑
|
||||
amplitude | from the middle of the wave to the top or bottom of the wave
🗑
|
||||
wavelength | distance from one waves crest to the next waves crest
🗑
|
||||
frequency | the number of waves which pass a fixed point in a certain amount of time.
🗑
|
||||
As frequency decreases | wavelength increases.
🗑
|
||||
Speed= | wavelength times frequency
🗑
|
||||
Light waves travel 1,000,0000 times faster than | sound waves.
🗑
|
||||
Reflection | boucing back of waves
🗑
|
||||
Refraction | bending of wave as it enters a medium
🗑
|
||||
diffraction | spreading out of waves through an opening
🗑
|
||||
interference | meeting and combining of waves
🗑
|
||||
constructive interference is | the adding of 2 waves
🗑
|
||||
destruction interference is | the subtraction of energy.
