Question
Answer
the diagram illustrating two waves in phase is:   it's the same  
🗑
which of the following usually occurs inside a material instead of at the surface?   absorption  
🗑
a violin string vibrates at a fundamental frequency of 200 Hz. the frequency of the third harmonic for this string is   600 Hertz  
🗑
a longitudinal wave travels   in the same direction as the oscillations  
🗑
how many anti-nodes does this standing wave have <><><>   3  
🗑
an ocean has a frequency of 2 Hz and a speed of 20 m/sec. What is the wavelength of this wave?   10 meters  
🗑
if you double the frequency of a pendulum, what happens to the period of one cycle?   the period is 1/2 its original time  
🗑
a mass oscillates on the end of a spring with a period of 4 seconds. what is the frequency of the oscillator?   .25 Hz  
🗑
natural frequency is:   the frequency at which a system oscillates when it is disturbed  
🗑
a transverse wave:   oscillated perpendicular to the direction of wave travel  
🗑
although a door is only slightly open, sound will pass from one room to another due mainly to:   reflection  
🗑
sound waves are always:   longitudinal waves  
🗑
which factor listed below has the greatest effect on the period of a pendulum?   length of the string  
🗑
destructive interference occurs because:   multiple waves combine to make a wave of smaller amplitude  
🗑
the wavelength of a wave is defined as   the distance from crest to crest  
🗑
when a guitar is plucked it vibrates at its fundamental. If a guitar string is 68 cm long, what is the speed of the wave on a string if the fundamental frequency of the guitar string is 262 hertz?   356 m/sec  
🗑
eyeglasses bend light waves by the process of   refraction  
🗑
the amplitude of a pendulum is doubled. this means   the pendulum will swing twice as far away from the center.  
🗑
when a wave reflects from a hard surface, it may do all of the following except-   change from transverse to longitudinal  
🗑
if the length of a pendulum increases, the period of the pendulum   increases  
🗑
a vibrating string has a natural frequency of 30 hertz the string will also be resonant at   60 Hertz  
🗑
a piano is the approximate wave length in centimeters of this sound wave if the speed of sound in air is 340meters per second?   77 centimeters  
🗑
time for one cycle to occur   period  
🗑
a single unit of periodic motion   cycle  
🗑
distance from one point on a wave to the same point on the next wave   wavelength  
🗑
unit of measurement for frequency (one cycle per second)   Hertz  
🗑
happens when two or more waves interact   interference  
🗑
multiples of the fundamental   harmonics  
🗑
a group chosen to include all those thing of interest to be studied   decibel  
🗑
a system that shows harmonic motion   oscillator  
🗑
the maximum response to an oscillating force occurring at a natural frequency   resonance  
🗑
number of cycles that occur in one second   frequency  
🗑
