Energy of Wave

What is a wave?

• The bottom of a wave

• It is less than the wave's amplitude.

• a repeating disturbance that transfers energy

• a repeating disturbance that keeps all energyt o create bigger waves

The greater the distrubance the

• smaller the wave

• the more energy is transferred

• the slower the wave

If a wave's energy is transferred only one time it is called a

• tsunami

• longitudinal wave

• transverse wave

• pulse

A wave is being monitored. It is recorded that it takes five seconds for a wave to pass a certain point. Which property is this?

• resting position

• wave length

• amplitude

• frequency

A pulse is

• when a waves energy is transferred one time only

• a wave where particles vibrate perpendicularly

• a wave where particles vibrate parallel to the direction the wave travels

• a repeating distrubance

A transverse wave is

• an area where the coils are spread out

• an area where the coils are close together

• a wave where the particles vibrate parallel

• a wave where the particles vibrate perpendicularly

A longitudinal wave is

• a wave that is a combination of a longitudinal and transverse wave

• a high pressure wave radiated out with great energy

• a wave where the particles vibrate parallel to the direction the wave travels

• an area where the coil spreads out

Compression is when

• a repeating disturbance transfers energy

• where the coils are close together

• when a waves energy is transferred one time only

• where the coils are spread apart

Rarefaction is

• an area where the coils are spread out

• an area where the coils are close together

• an area where the coil flattens out

• an area that has no coil at all

Surface wave is

• a longitudinal wave

• a high pressure wave radiated out with great energy from the center

• a wave that is a combination of a transverse and longitudinal wave

• a transverse wave
