Unit 5-9 Review

Front

What is the path of light travel?

Back

Light travels in a straight line (transverse waves).

Front

What law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction?

Back

Newton's 3rd Law - Law of Force Pairs (Action, Reaction).

Front

What is the part of a sound wave where particles are closest together?

Back

Compression.

Front

What is the part of a sound wave where particles are furthest apart?

Back

Rarefaction.

Front

What does the Law of Acceleration state?

Back

The greater the mass of an object being moved, the greater amount of force needed to move (accelerate) the object.

Front

Which type of wave has the highest energy?

Back

Gamma Ray.

Front

What is the definition of transverse waves?

Back

Waves that move perpendicular to the direction of the energy transfer.

Front

What is the definition of longitudinal waves?

Back

Waves that move parallel to the direction of the energy transfer.

Front

What is Newton's 1st Law?

Back

An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by a net external force.

Front

What is the definition of force?

Back

A push or pull on an object resulting from the object's interaction with another object.
