1. Name the Parts of a Wave Monday October 22nd 2018 Amplitude Wavelength
Crest
Trough

2. Tuesday October 23rd 2018 Rarefaction Compression
Draw a longitudinal wave.
Your longitudinal wave needs to have one (1) distinct wavelength (i.e., middle of one compression to the middle of a neighboring compression = 1 distinct wave).
Label the compression and the rarefaction.

Using the speed formula from yesterday, calculate the speed of a wave traveling 10 meters at a frequency of 4 Hz.
v = f x l = x 10 = 40 m/s

5th & 7th Periods
Using the speed formula from yesterday, calculate the frequency of a wave traveling 100 m at a speed of 100 m/s.
f = v / l = /100 = 1 Hz.

All classes:
How fast (speed) are the waves moving at Panama City Beach, FL if the waves are 6 m apart (wavelength) and hit the beach with 0.5 Hz of frequency?
Humans can hear soundwaves with a wavelength up to 100 m and traveling at 2,000,000 m/s. What is the maximum frequency that human can hear?
v = f/l = m x 0.5 Hz =
3 m/s
f = v/l = ,000,000 m/s / 100 m =
20,000 Hz
