2. Wave A wave is any disturbance that transmits energy through matter or space. TAKE NOTES!

3. Medium All mechanical waves require a medium through which to travel. The medium is the material through which mechanical waves travel. This type of wave transfers energy by the vibration of particles in a medium. One particle vibrates and then passes its energy to a particle next to it. So on and so forth. energy is transported throughout the medium, without the transport of any matter. TAKE NOTES!

4. CREST TROUGH WAVELENGTH WAVE PROPERTIES CREST – highest point of a wave TROUGH – lowest point of a wave WAVELENGTH – distance from peak to peak AMPLITUDE – the distance a wave rises/falls from its rest position FREQUENCY – the number of waves passing a given point HERTZ - how many waves goes by per second AMPLITUDE REST POSITION FREQUENCY TAKE NOTES!

5. Frequency and Wavelength Longer wavelengthsLarger frequencies result in smallerresult in shorter frequencies. wavelengths. As the frequency of a wave increases, its wavelength decreases. Frequency and wavelength are related! TAKE NOTES!

6. Types of Mechanical Waves Sound WavesWater Waves Seismic Waves

7. SOUND Sound is a mechanical wave that travels through air at about 340 m/s or 1100 ft. per second. Loud sound waves are greater amplitudes than soft sound waves. Loud sounds carry more energy than soft sounds. Sound travels faster in a solid than a liquid, and faster in a liquid than a gas. In a sound wave, either the wavelength or frequency determines the pitch. Pitch is the high or low of a sound. Sound level (loudness) is measured in units called decibels. Vocal cords produce sound by vibration. As the frequency of a sound wave increases, its wavelength decreases. TAKE NOTES!

8. Then there are light waves that require no medium at all. They are called electromagnetic waves

9. Light is a electromagnetic wave that travels through air at about 300,000 km/s. Bright lights have greater amplitudes (more energy) than the waves that make up dim light. Because frequency and wavelength are related, either the wavelength or frequency of a light wave determines the color of the light. Blue light has a larger frequency and shorter wavelength than red light. Red light has a shorter frequency and a longer wavelength. Light travels through faster in gases than in solids or liquids. Example: speed of light is one and a half times faster in air than it is in glass. TAKE NOTES!

11. Review Waves are the way energy is transferred. Waves that travel through a medium are called mechanical waves and can be water waves, sound waves, or earthquakes (seismic waves) Waves that do not travel through a medium are called electromagnetic waves, such as light, radio waves, and X-rays.

12. When a student rides a bike down a hill, potential energy is transferred into kinetic energy. Potential Energy Kinetic Energy EXAMPLE 2

13. KEY TERMS An energy transformation occurs when energy changes from one form to another. Energy transformations occur in energy production (as in conversions of energy for use in everyday life). Potential Energy is the energy that is stored because of an object’s position. The energy of an object due to its motion is called Kinetic Energy. TAKE NOTES!

16. What is Energy? An exertion of force The ability to do work Potential(stored) and Kinetic(motion) a separate division of each type of energy

17. POTENTIAL ENERGY Energy an object has because of its position TAKE NOTES!

18. KINETIC ENERGY Energy of motion. Only a moving object has kinetic energy Amount of energy depends on speed and mass TAKE NOTES!

19. POSITION 1 POSITION 2 POSITION 3 Potential Energy Kinetic Energy Potential Energy The boulder is in a resting position with low potential energy and no kinetic energy. EXAMPLE 1 The boulder at the top of the hill has potential energy and no kinetic energy. As the boulder rolls down the hill, the potential energy transforms into kinetic energy and kinetic energy becomes greater until

20. The amount of kinetic energy also depends on the mass and the speed of an object. Kinetic energy increases as speed increases. The faster an object moves, the more kinetic energy it has. EXAMPLE 3: The faster a bowling ball moves, the harder it will strike the pins, the more pins it can knock down. TAKE NOTES!

21. As the ball leaves the ground, it is moving the fastest and has the maximum kinetic energy. As the ball moves upward, it slows down as it’s kinetic energy is transformed into potential energy. As the ball moves downward, it speeds up as its potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy. 1 2 3 EXAMPLE 4 Explain how energy is transformed as the ball rises and falls.

22. Energy has no mass or weight Energy does not take up space Energy is NOT matter Energy vs. Matter everything on Earth is either energy or matter Matter has mass and weight Matter takes up space Matter is NOT energy TAKE NOTES! CONSERVATION of ENERGY – energy can not be created or destroyed
