FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is amplitude in a wave?

Back

Amplitude is the maximum displacement of points on a wave from its rest position, indicating the wave's energy.

2.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the formula for wave velocity?

Back

Wave velocity = frequency x wavelength.

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you calculate the frequency of a wave if the velocity is 0.50 m/s and the wavelength is 0.1 m?

Back

Frequency = velocity / wavelength = 0.50 m/s / 0.1 m = 5 Hz.

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the Doppler Effect?

Back

The Doppler Effect is the apparent change in pitch of a sound due to the relative motion between the observer and the source.

5.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

Which wave has the greatest frequency in a diagram?

Back

The wave with the shortest wavelength has the greatest frequency.

6.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is wavelength in a wave?

Back

Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive points that are in phase on a wave, such as crest to crest.

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the relationship between frequency and wavelength?

Back

Frequency and wavelength are inversely related; as frequency increases, wavelength decreases.
