How is digitized information transmitted?
through a series of wave pulses
through a series of sound beats
as an unbroken stream of information
as a mechanical wave
In a demonstration, a student flashes a light through a liquid in a clear glass and observes the light pass through. The student plays a note through the same liquid in the same glass and detects the sound travel through the liquid but also observes the liquid vibrates.
What does the demonstration show about the behavior of light and sound waves?
Neither sound nor light moves by vibrating particles.
Both sound and light move by vibrating particles.
Sound moves by vibrating particles, while light does not.
Light moves by vibrating particles, while sound does not.
A student observes SpongeBob. Which statement is correct about the color of SpongeBob?
As sunlight strikes the SpongeBob, all light is absorbed by the SpongeBob.
As sunlight strikes the SpongeBob, all light is reflected by the SpongeBob.
As sunlight strikes SpongeBob, yellow light is absorbed, but all other colors of the spectrum are reflected by the SpongeBob.
As sunlight strikes SpongeBob, yellow light is reflected, but all other colors of the spectrum are absorbed by the SpongeBob.
The blue laser produces a blue dot on the paper, but the red laser does not produce a dot. Which table summarizes the results of the investigation?
Which statement correctly identifies how the energy is used in the device to produce electricity?
Distance between ocean waves causes gaps in spinning of turbine, which allows production of electrical energy inside the generator.
Speed of ocean waves causes turbine to rotate, which continually produces electrical energy inside the generator.
Amplitude of ocean waves determines how much air column rises the rotates the turbine, which produces electrical energy inside the generator.
Frequency of ocean waves determines how high air column rises that rotates the turbine, which produces electrical energy inside the generator.
Which statement explains the reason for the observation of different colors with different filters?
Each filter reflects a different wavelength of light coming from the visible light.
Each filter absorbs the color shown by the filter and transmits the other wavelengths of white light.
White light is a combination of colors and requires a filter and will only transmit with the medium.
White light has no color, and each filter will add a specific wavelength of light to the white light.
A student places an object in a dark room and shines different colors of light onto the object. The appearance of the object with each color of light is listed in the table.
What color will the object appear under white light?
blue because the object reflects only blue light
green because the object reflects only green light
magenta because the object reflects blue, red, and magenta light
yellow because the object reflects green, red, and yellow light
The table lists the technological methods of predicting floods from excess rainfall.
Which technological method of predicting floods is more effective?
Airborne lasers; they can provide an aerial view of water bodies.
Satellites; they can monitor a region in real time.
Airborne lasers; they are more accurate as meteorologists physically monitor them.
Satellites; they are launched from the ground, which makes their maintenance easier.
