31.3 m/s
247.5 m/s
What is the bending of waves as they enter a new medium called?
A wave of constant wavelength diffracts as it passes through an opening in a barrier. As the size of the opening is increased, the diffraction effects
decrease
increase
remain the same
When a wave pulse hits the end of the rope that is fixed (known as a fixed boundary), the pulse returns with no change of phase.
True
False
When a wave pulse hits the end of the rope that is free to move (known as a free end), the pulse returns with on the same side.
True
False
The speed of sound depends on these two things:

Why does this car appears red under a white light?
The car is absorbing the red light and reflecting the blue and green.
The car is reflecting only the red light while absorbing the blue and green.
The car is absorbing the red and green light while reflecting the blue.
The car is absorbing the red, blue and green, but our eyes can only see the red.
This drawing illustrates the ________________________ of a light wave.

What happens to light during total internal reflection?
The light reflects back into the original medium at the same angle.
The light refracts closer to the normal line.
The light refracts farther away from the normal line.
The light reflects at the angle it would have refracted at.
When will total internal reflection occur?
When light travels from a less dense to a more dense medium
When the angle of incidence is smaller than the critical angle
When the angle of incidence is greater than the critical angle
When the light cannot pass through a medium
