WorksheetsUnit 9 - Behavior of Waves Test Review
Total questions: 20
Worksheet time: 10mins
What do we called a bending of light as it enters a different
medium?
Refraction
Reflection
Diffraction
Interference
This type of wave is formed by two waves of the save frequency moving in opposite direction. The wave that is created appears to stay in place.
What is the first type of seismic wave to occur during an earthquake. Probably not noticeable and only detectible by seismographs.
By studying the light wave of distant stars, planets and solar systems, what has the doppler effect revealed about the nature of our universe?
Speed of light is increasing
Sound wave travels fasted through a _______?
Why cant sound travel through space?
It doesn't have enough frequency
What wave property do we use to categorize different forms of light on the EM spectrum?
Index of Refraction
A perceived increase or decrease in frequency of a sound based on its movement and relative position of the observer.
Hubble's Law
Malus's Law
What controls the pitch of the sound wave? This is whether a sound wave sounds low(bass) or high(treble).
What phenomena of light causes the formation of a rainbow?
Refraction of light
What is happening at the area indicated by the thin red lines on the wave pattern.
Destructive interference
Wavelength of the waves
Constructive interference
Amplitude of the waves
A type of reflection caused by light waves bouncing off smooth surfaces.
A type of light wave that bounces off rough surfaces.
A bending of wave around an obstacle or small opening. The smaller the opening the bigger the bending of the wave.
Diffraction
Reflection
Refraction
Inteference
A type of wave that moves as a disturbance along particles in the ground caused by stored up energy in rock and released as vibrations.
Ground Wave
Standing wave
Sound Wave
Seismic Wave
What type of wave behavior is presented in the image.
reflection
refraction
diffraction
doppler effect
What in basic terms, is called when a wave bounces off an object to form an image on another object, like a mirror or smooth surface?
Reflection
Refraction
Diffraction
Interference
Type of seismic wave that comes after an S-Wave (secondary wave). It is the slowest but most destructive during an earthquake.
P-Wave
Surface Wave
Large Wave
Tsunami wave
This type of EM radiation is used to send mobile phone signals, GPS, and plays a major role in wireless communications?
ulraviolet
microwaves
gamma
infrared
This type of wave is used to treat cancer, using it's high energy to destroy the cells in a tumor.
Gamma
x-ray
microwave
infrared
