What is a transverse wave?
A transverse wave is a wave which oscillates.
A transverse wave is a wave which compresses and refracts occurring at a right angled to the direction of energy transfer.
A transverse wave is a wave which does not have amplitude.
A transverse wave is a moving wave that consists of oscillations occurring at a right angled to the direction of energy transfer.
What is longitudinal wave?
A wave which is moving wave with consist oscillations occurring at right angled to the direction of energy transfer.
A longitudinal is a wave which the displacement of the medium is parallel to the compression.
A longitudinal wave is a wave with the displacement of the medium which is parallel to the propagation of the wave.
A longitudinal wave is a wave which the displacement of the medium is parallel to the rarefaction.
what is the wave equation?
V=fλ
λ=Vf
V=f/λ
f=λ*V
Jill calls jack. Identify what happens to the sound waves as they travel through the doorway?
Reflection
Rarfraction
Diffraction
Repulsion
Define reflection?
When the waves bend around an obstacle as they pass through a gap.
When a wave changes direction due the change of speed.
When the wave bounces back at an equal angle at which it struck the obstacle.
what is the equation for speed of sound?
Speed of sound= distance/ time
Speed of sound= distance* time
Speed of sound= distance^time
Speed of sound= time^distance
What is an echo?
When something receives a sound and generates another sound in response.
The reflection of the sound waves heard a short time after the original sound was created.
When you hear sound but in a deeper voice
When sound bends
