Waves and Wave Properties. A wave is a disturbance that carries energy from place to place. A wave does NOT carry matter with it! It just moves the matter.
Amplitude The max. distance the particles move from the “rest position” to: The more energy a wave has → The greater its amplitude Compression or rarefaction.

Period 2 Question 1

For a wave in the ocean, the amplitude is: The distance beween crests The height difference between a crest and a through One half the height difference between the crest and a through How far the wave goes up on the beach none of the above

Period 2 Question 2

If the frequency of a traveling wave is increased by a factor of three in a medium where the wave speed is constant, which of the following is the result: Amplitude is one third as big Amplitude is tripled Wavelength is one third as big Wavelength is tripled Amplitude and wavelength do not change

Period 3 Question 1

Which of the following is an example of a longitudinal wave? Sound wave in air Wave traveling in a string Waves in the ocean All choices 1,2,3 represent longitudinal waves Only 1 and 2 are longitudinal waves

Period 3 Question 2

The wavelength of a traveling wave can be calculate if one knows: frequency Speed and amplitude Amplitude and frequency Frequency and speed Period and amplitude
