1.When waves travel through a medium, WHAT do they transfer between the two points? ENERGY
2.Label the following on the diagram: Wavelength Trough Crest Amplitude cycle
AMPLITUDE FREQUENCY 3.What is the direct measure of the waves energy called? 4.The number of waves that pass a certain point at a given time is the ______________ of the wave.
What is the highest part of the wave called? CREST
Transverse Draw a longitudinal wave. Draw a transverse wave. Which one moves the particles of the medium perpendicular to the direction of the Energy transport? Which one moves the particles of the medium parallel to the direction of the Energy transport? Transverse LONGITUDINAL
In a longitudinal wave, the areas were the coils are farthest apart are called? RAREFACTIONS
DECREASES HERTZ As the wavelength of a wave gets longer, the frequency? The frequency of a wave is measured in units called?
Which wave below has high frequency but low amplitude? Which wave below has the highest frequency?

1,493 m/s Carbon dioxide Sound waves travel slowest through? At what speed through water at 25 degrees Celsius? 1,493 m/s Compare the speed of SOUND through WATER and AIR? FASTER THRU WATER
SIESMIC WAVES Changes directions when passing thru a different medium: Choose from these words: resonance, reflection, refraction, seismic waves, constructive interference Changes directions when passing thru a different medium: REFRACTION A light ray hitting a surface and bouncing off. REFLECTION Waves produced by earthquakes: SIESMIC WAVES
RESONANCE CONSTRUCTIVE WAVE DIFFRACTION Choose from these words: resonance, reflection, refraction, seismic waves, constructive interference When vibrations match an object’s natural frequency and travel through it: RESONANCE Two waves combine and make a larger wave: CONSTRUCTIVE WAVE Bending of waves around a barrier: DIFFRACTION
