1 What are waves?

2 Wave Definition: A _________ that ________ ________ from place to place. What carries waves? A __________, a medium is the ___________ through which a ________ __________. A medium can be a ______, ________ or __________

3 Not all waves require a _______ __ _________. _________ from the sun travels through _______ _________

4 What causes waves? Waves are ______ when a ______ of ________ causes a _____to ________ A _______ is a _______ _____and ______or _____and _______ motion.

5 Types of waves: Waves are ________ according to _____ ________ _________

6 Transverse wave _______ that _______the ________ at _______ ________ to the ________in which the waves are traveling is called a ________ ___________. Transverse means ________.The _______________ are called _______ the _________ parts are called _________.

7 Compressional Wave Matter __________ in the _______ ____________as the ________ ____________. Example: Slinky

8 Compressional wave The parts,where the ______ _____ ___________ together are called _________, the parts where the _____ are ______ _________ are called _____________.

9 Combinations of waves Surface waves are a combination of transverse and longitudinal waves.The waves occur at the surface between water and air.

10 Properties of Waves

11 Basic Properties of Waves _____________ _______________ ____________

12 Draw Transverse wave and label: crest & trough the old Slinky songthe old Slinky song)

13 Draw a Compressional wave: label compression& rarefaction

14 Amplitude __________ is the __________ ________ the ________ of the _________carrying the _________ ________ __________ from their ________ ___________. The _________ the ________ ________ as it ___________the ________the ___________ of the resulting waves. The ________ the __________the ________ the ________ of _________

15 Amplitude of transverse waves The __________ of a ________ _________ is the ___________ ___________ the _________ moves _____ or ________ from its ______ ________. You can find the amplitude of a transverse wave by __________ the _________ from _______to _________ or ________to _______.

16 Amplitude of a longitudinal wave. The __________ of a _________ _______ is a ________of how __________ or ___________ the medium becomes.

17 Wavelength A _________ ________ a certain __________ before it ________ to _________. The ________ between __ _____________ _______ of a wave is its _____________. _________ measure from ______ to _______ or ________ to _________. ____________ measure from _______ _______________ to the next.

18 Frequency The ___________ of ________ ________that pass a _______ _______ in a _________ amount of time. AKA _______ of __________ per __________. Frequency measured in ________ (Hz).

19 Speed The _________, ___________, and _____________of a wave are related to each other by a mathematical formula. Speed = __________ x __________ Frequency = ________/____________ Wavelength = _______/____________

20 Speed Waves in different ___________ travel at _________ _______. However, in a given __________and under the _______ _______________ the ________of the wave is ______________

22 Ways Waves Interact _____________ Interference ________________ Standing Waves

23 Reflection When an ___________ or _________ hits a ____________ through which it ____________ pass, it _____________ back. Angle of _________________ Angle of ___________________

24 Examples of reflection __________ ___________________________________________

25 _____________ is when a ______ moves from one __________ into another __________at an ___________ it changes _______ as it enters the ______ ________ which causes it to ______. The __________ of ______due to a _________in _________ is called _______________.

26 Refraction Though all ________ change ________when they enter a ____ _________. _________ occurs when ___ ______ of the ______enters the ______ _________ before the ________ ________
