|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| What is Force? | A push or pull exerted on an object.
🗑
|
||||
| What is Work? | The use of force to an object some distance.
🗑
|
||||
| What is a wave? | A disturbance that transfers energy.
🗑
|
||||
| What is a medium? | The material (solid, liquid or gas) through which a wave can travel.
🗑
|
||||
| What is a crest? | The point where the wave is the highest.
🗑
|
||||
| What is a trough? | The point where the wave is the lowest.
🗑
|
||||
| What is a Longitudinal Wave? | Wave particles move back and forth in the same direction that the wave travels.
🗑
|
||||
| What is Compression? | The effect, result, or consequence of being pushed together. The opposite of rarefaction.
🗑
|
||||
| What is Rarefaction? | The reduction of an item's density. The opposition of compression.
🗑
|
||||
| What is a Transverse Wave? | Wave particles move up and down as the wave passes.
🗑
|
||||
| What are Mechanical Waves? | Mechanical Waves are waves which move through a material medium (solid, liquid, or gas) at a speed that depends on the type of medium. Examples of mechanical waves are longitudinal and transverse.
🗑
|
||||
| What are Electromagnetic Waves? | Electromagnetic waves are waves that require no medium and could travel through outer space.
🗑
|
||||
| What is Amplitude? | Is a measure of how far particles in the medium move from their rest position.
🗑
|
||||
| What is Wavelength? | The distance from any point on a wave to the next identical point. Ex. A crest to the next crest.
🗑
|
||||
| What is Frequency? | Is the number of waves that passes a point in a given amount of time.
🗑
|
||||
| What is Hertz (Hz) | One hertz is equal to one wavelength per second.
🗑
|
||||
| What is Wave Speed? | The speed that waves travel. Equation. Wave Speed = Wavelength/ wave period.
🗑
|
||||
| If 5 kg were moved vertically 1 meter in 3 seconds, what would the power generated be? | (5kg x 1 meter) / 3 seconds = 1.66 kg-meter per second
🗑
|
||||
| If 3 kg were moved vertically 2 meters, what would work be? | 6 kg-meters of work.
🗑
|
||||
| If a wave has a wave speed of 10 m/s and it took 5s to pass by, what would be the wavelength? | the wavelength is 2m
🗑
|
||||
| If you measure two crests on a wave, what is term that defines the measurement? | That measurement would be the wavelength.
🗑
|
||||
| If a sound wave has a wavelength of 20m and the frequency of the wavelength is 5, what is the wave speed? | The wave speed would be 100 m/s.
🗑
|
||||
| Which of the following would be able to travel into deep outer space without a medium, a Mechanical wave or an Electromagnetic wave? | An electromagnetic wave.
🗑
|
||||
| If a sound wave is transmitting through a cement wall or a trampoline, which of those two would transmit a slower wave? | The more flexible a medium is, the slower it transmits waves. Therefore the trampoline would transmit the slower wave.
🗑
|
||||
| Which of the following terms defines when a slinky is tight together rather than spread apart? Rarefaction, Compression, Amplitude? | Compression would show how the waves are compressed together and tight.
🗑
|
||||
| What is power? | The rate at which work is done. P=W/t
🗑
