3NT Waves

What is transferred from place to place by waves?

• matter

• energy

• particles

• light

What does the arrow in the picture represent?

• amplitude

   

• wavelength

• frequency

•  trough

What does the arrow in the picture represent?

• wavelength

• echolocation

• amplitude

• peak

If the amplitude increases, the energy of the wave:

• increases

   

• decreases

• stays the same

The highest point of a wave is called …….

• trough

•  

  wavelength

• crest

• amplitude

What happens when the amplitude of a sound increases?

• it makes the sound louder

• it makes the sound travel faster

• it makes the sound softer

•  

  it changes the pitch or note of the sound

Which wave has the highest frequency?

• 1

• 2

• 3

• 4

This sound has high pitch, which means it has a(n):

• Higher frequency

• Lower frequency

• Higher amplitude

• Lower amplitude

Which letter(s) represent the rest position of the wave (select all that apply)?

• A & C

• B & F

• E & G

• D

What part of the wave is shown at letter A?

• crest

• trough

• wavelength

• frequency
