- 1what is a wavea disturbance
that is the movement of energy
through a medium
between two points
or
from one location to another - 2identify two types of waveslongitudinal waves and transverse waves
- 3describe two types of wave formslongitudinal waves have wave particle movement parallel to the direction of wave motion
while
transverse waves have wave particles moving perpendicular to the direction of wave motion
through a medium - 4define the term mediuma medium is the substance or material through which waves travel
- 5—a - amplitude
b- trough
c - crest
d - wavelength
e - equilibrium
f - distance in metres (m) - 6give the correct term for the following 1. a waves maximum upward or downward displacement 2. the point of maximum upward displacement 3. the point of maximum downward displacement 4. the length of one wave cycle 5. is when there is zero displacement1- amplitude
2- crest
3 - trough
4 - wavelength
5 - equilibrium - 7define the terms 1. period 2. frequency1. the time it takes a wavelength/wave cycle (crest and trough)to occur
2. the number of wavelengths or cycles that occur in one second measured in hertz Hz - 8calculate the frequency in Hz a - 8 cycles in 1 s b - 8 cycles in 2 s c - 8 cycles in 4 s d - 4 cycles in 2 sa - 8 Hz
b - 4 Hz
c - 2 Hz
d - 2 Hz - 9frequency is period is speed of a wave is frequency is wavelength is1/period
1/frequency
speed of a wave = frequency * wavelength
speed/wavelength
speed/frequency
