Karten in diesem Stapel (12)
- 1What do waves doWaves transfer energy and information
- 2What's really the diffrent formed of a waveWaves can ether be transverse (electromagnetic waves) or longitudinal (sound waves) mechanical waves can be ether.
- 3Transverse wavesTransverse waves vibrate at right angles to the direction of energy transfer
- 4Longitudinal wavesLongitudinal waves vibrate parallel to the direction of energy transfer
- 5The amplitude of a waveThe amplitude of a wave is the height of the waves crest or the depth of the wave though the middle
- 6The frequency of a waveThe frequency of a wave is the number of wave crests passing a point in one second
- 7Wave lengthThe wave length is the distance from one wave crest to the next wave crest
- 8Wave speed equationWave speed (m/s) = frequency (Hz) x wave length (m)
- 9Waves can beReflected, Refected and diffracted
- 10The law of reflection saysThe law of refraction says that the angle of incidence = angle of reflection
- 11Refraction isRefraction is the change of direction of waves when they when they travel across boundaries ( different materials)
- 12High pitch sound = Loud sound =High pitch sound = high frequency
Loud sound = large amplitude
