Wave

Question 1

Wave

Answer 1

A disturbance that transfers energy from place to place

Question 2

Energy

Answer 2

The ability to do work or cause change

Question 3

Medium

Answer 3

The material through which a wave travels

Question 4

Mechanical waves

Answer 4

A wave that requires a medium through which to travel

Question 5

Vibration

Answer 5

A repeated back and forth up and down motion

Question 6

Transverse wave

Answer 6

A wave that moves the medium at right angles

Question 7

Crest

Answer 7

Highest part of a TRANSVERSE wave

Question 8

Trough

Answer 8

Lowest part of a transverse wave

Question 9

Compression

Answer 9

Part of a longitudinal wave where medium comes together

Question 10

Refraction

Answer 10

The bending of waves as they enter a new medium at an angle

Question 11

Amplitude

Answer 11

Height of transverse wave from the crest, trough, from the center

Question 12

Wavelength

Answer 12

Distance between crest of one wave and crest of next wave

Question 13

Hertz

Answer 13

Unit of measurement for frequency

Question 14

How often a wave occurs

Answer 14

=amplitude

Question 15

T or F, wave speed or something(idk) takes to travel distance? Gives waves speed

Answer 15

True (the only true answer on the quiz)

Question 16

T or F, all waves have wavelength, frequency, speed

Answer 16

F, amplitude

Question 17

Frequency (I’m not sure but you can remember)

Answer 17

F, speed..?

Question 18

T or F, speed, WL, frequency are scientific theory or something idk

Answer 18

F, mathematical formula

Question 19

Height of WL determines an amplitude

Answer 19

F, crest

Question 20

Electromagnetic

Answer 20

Waves that can transfer electric and magnetic energy through the vacuum of space
