Yr 8 Revision - energy and waves

Work done formula

• work done (Joules) = force (Newtons) ´ distance (metres)

Features of waves

• Wavelength – The distance between a crest and a trough or a compression and a rarefaction

• Frequency- The number of vibrations in a second

• Longitudinal wave - The particles in the medium vibrate to and fro in a direction parallel to the movement of the wave.

• Transverse wave - The particles in the medium vibrate up and down in a direction perpendicular to the movement of the wave.

Multiple Select

Choose the correct answer(s).

Frequency is

• number of vibrations in one second

• number of oscillations in one second

• the height of a wave

• The length of one wave

Multiple Choice

Amplitude is

• the length of a wave

• the height of a wave

• the number of waves

• the maximum height of a peak

Multiple Choice

Wavelength is

• the maximum height of a peak

• the maximum length of a wave

• the length of a crest or trough

• the distance between two consecutive crests

Sound waves

• compression - particles are closer together- high pressure

• rarefaction - particles are far apart-low pressure

• longitudinal wave

Travel of sound waves

• loud speaker vibrates

• particles close to the loud speaker vibrate

• the neighbouring particles vibrate

• the vibrations hit the ear drum

• the sound is heard

Speed of sound waves

• The closer the particles the more the speed of the sound

EM Spectrum order

• frequency of the waves increase as we go down the spectrum

• Wavelength of the waves decrease as we go down the spectrum.

• Waves having longer wavelength can cause heating of the body cells

• Waves having shorter wavelength can cause ionisation of the body cells.

Multiple Select

Choose the correct answer(s)

The waves are arranged in the order of

• increasing frequency

• increasing energy

• increasing wavelength

• increasing amplitude

Multiple Choice

Which of the following order of waves is correct

• Radio waves, visible, ultra violet, x rays, gamma rays, microwaves, infrared

• Radio waves, x rays, gamma rays, microwaves, infrared, visible, ultra violet

• Radio waves, infrared, microwaves, ultra violet, visible, x rays, gamma rays

• Radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible, ultra violet, x rays, gamma rays

Poll

Radio waves can cause ionisation

• yes

• no

• maybe

Poll

Gamma rays can cause ionisation

• yes

• no

• maybe

Superposition of waves

• Waves add up or cancel

• when waves are in step with each other, they add up and we get a combined wave

• when waves are out of step with each other, they cancel out and we get no wave

Multiple Choice

When waves add up their

• energy increases

• wavelength increases

• amplitude increases

• frequency increases

Multiple Select

Choose the correct answer(s)

When waves that are out of step superpose

• energy becomes zero

• wavelength becomes zero

• frequency becomes zero

• amplitude becomes zero
