The speed at which sound waves travel depends on the

type of material through which the sound travels.

distance between the vibration source and the receiver.

size of the object making the sound.

type of device making the sound.

A student in an empty classroom shouts, "Hello!" Which best explains what the student hears after the shout?

an increased frequency of sound

Sonar equipment sends waves into deep water and measures the

time delay of the reflected waves.

refraction of the transmitted waves.

direction of the transmitted waves.

interference of the transmitted and reflected waves.

Which design of the walls would be most desirable to help avoid echoes?

They should use bumpy walls for all four sides.

They should use bumpy walls for only one side.

They should use smooth walls for all four sides.

They should use smooth walls for only one side.

How does the color of an object affect the amount of energy it receives from sunlight?

Dark colored objects absorb more light and become warmer than lighter objects.

Light colored objects reflect more light and become warmer than darker objects.

Light colored objects absorb more light and become warmer than darker objects.

Dark colored objects reflect more light and become warmer than lighter objects.

What happens to a ray of white light when it passes through a prism?

The ray of light is bent in several pathways showing a rainbow.

The ray of light is combined into a single color.

The ray of light is completely absorbed by the prism.

The ray of light is bent backward toward the source of light.

Which statement correctly describes how a sound wave travels through air?

The wave carries energy that causes molecules to move back and forth.

The wave carries molecules of air away from the source of the sound.

The wave carries a molecule in one direction until it collides with another molecule.

The wave moves through the air and gains energy from the moving molecules that it touches.

Rainbows are formed when light is refracted or bent by water droplets. Why is light refracted by water droplets?

Light slows down when it enters the water.

Light speeds up when it enters the water.

Light gets trapped by water inside the droplet.

Light gets different colors from water inside the droplet.

A single beam of light is shone into a glass containing milky water. Which statement best describes why the beam of light bends downward?

The light is moving from air into another medium.

The milk blocks the passage of light through the water.

The force of gravity affects light more when it is in a liquid.

The farther light is from its source, the slower it moves.

Some students were on a tour exploring the inside of a cave. While the students were in the cave, they realized they heard an echo every time that they spoke. Which most likely caused the echo to occur?

the reflection of the sound waves

the accumulation of the sound waves

the diffraction of the sound waves

the refraction of the sound waves

Which statement about sound waves is correct?

Sound waves transfer energy through vibration of a medium.

Sound waves transfer energy through a vacuum.

Sound waves transfer energy in the electromagnetic spectrum.

Sound waves transfer energy by permanent displacement of particles.

Which of these is a way that sunglasses help protect the eyes?

reflecting light rays away from the eyes

refracting more light rays into the eyes

reflecting more light rays into the eyes

refracting light rays away from the eyes

A student performs an experiment to study how sound waves are transmitted by placing a ringing buzzer inside a bell jar and sealing the jar. The student then connects the bell jar to a vacuum pump to remove the air from inside of the jar. The table shows the student’s observations before and after removing the air from the bell jar.
What can be concluded from the experiment?

Sound waves are transverse waves.

Sound waves do not carry energy when they are transmitted.

Sound waves do not transmit through material mediums.

Sound waves transfer energy through the vibration of particles in mediums.
