What is the difference between a longitudinal and a transverse wave?
Longitudinal waves move parallel to the direction they are traveling, transverse waves move perpendicular to the direction they are traveling.
15
What word describes the number of waves that pass a point during a certain amount of time?
frequency
15
Which letter represents wavelength?
A
15
Which letter represents amplitude?
B
15
Which letters are crests?
B and F
15
Which letters are troughs?
D and H
15
Which letters are at rest position?
A, C, E, and G
15
How could I measure the amplitude of a wave?
From rest position to the trough or rest position to the crest
15
How could I measure the wavelength of a wave?
From any point in the wave to the next same point (i.e. crest to crest OR trough to trough)
15
If I know that a wave pulse occurs in 5 seconds, what can I use that to calculate: frequency, amplitude, wave speed, or wavelength?
wave speed
15
wave speed = wavelength x frequency... If the wavelength is 12 m and the frequency is 4 Hz, what is the wave speed?
48 m/s
15
wave speed = wavelength x frequency... If the wave speed is 9 m/s and the frequency is 3 Hz, what is the wavelength?
3 m
15
wave speed = wavelength x frequency... If the wave speed is 42 m/s and the wavelength is 6 m, what is the frequency?
7 Hz
15
What unit is used to describe frequency?
Hertz (Hz)
15
TRUE or FALSE: If everything else is the same, a wave with a smaller amplitude has more energy.
False
15
