Wave Behavior Review

People often put noise-cancelling earmuffs on babies when they bring them to loud places. This is to help protect their ears. How do you think this works? Select TWO answers.

• Sound waves are striking the earmuffs and bouncing off of them.

• Sound waves are striking the earmuffs, going into them, but not passing through them.

• Sound waves are striking earmuffs and going through them.

• Sound waves are striking the earmuffs and being bent as they pass through.

This is a real unedited photo taken with a cell phone. The man is in a swimming pool with glass walls and water filled to the top. Why does it look like his head is separate from his body?

• Light waves are bouncing as they pass from air to water.

• Light waves are not passing from the air to the water.

• Light waves are traveling in a straight line as they pass from air to water.

• Light waves are bending as they pass from air to water.
