- 1Symbol for 'Crest' and definitionM
Highest point on a wave - 2Symbol for 'Trough' and definitionN
Lowest point on a wave - 3Symbol for 'Wavelength' and definitionL (Curly)
The distance between 2 different points on a wave - 4Symbol for 'Amplitude' and definitionA
Top of crest to rest point, strength - 5Symbol for 'Speed' and definitionV (Curly)
How fast a wave travels - 6Symbol for 'Frequency' and definitionF
How often a wave passes a point - 7Symbol for 'Period' and definitionT
The time taken for one wave to pass thru a fixed point - 8Describe the 'Mechanical transfer of energy'The mechanical transfer of energy requires a medium for the wave to propogate
- 9what kind of line does light travel in?a straight line
- 10What do convex mirrors cause rays to do?rays to be refracted away from the normal, hence diverging
- 11What do concave mirrors cause rays to do?refract towards the normal, converge onto a focal point
- 12Describe the connection between the angle of incidence and the angle of reflectionangle of incidence=angle of reflection
- 13Describe the relationship between amplitude and a wave's energyThe bigger the amplitude, the higher the waves energy. Bigger amplitude means more energy.
- 14What kind of waves does sound travel on?Longitudinal, by transferring energy from one particle to another
