Sound Waves Review Quizizz

the number of wavelengths that pass a point each second

• frequency
• wavelength
• pitch
• amplitude

material (matter) through which a wave travels

• medium
• vacuum
• sound
• pitch

how high or low a sound is; depends on the frequency

• pitch
• volume
• sound
• medium

a wave in which the vibration is in the same direction as that in which the wave is traveling; sound waves

• longitudinal wave
• ocean wave
• transverse wave
• mechanical wave

the part of a longitudinal wave where the particles of the medium are close together/have more pressure

• rarefaction
• compression
• crest
• trough

the part in a longitudinal wave where the particles are spread apart/ have less pressure

• compression
• rarefaction
• crest
• trough

a wave that requires a medium through which to travel

• mechanical wave
• chemical wave
• electromagnetic wave
• microwave
