Master wave concepts! Review types, properties, and behaviors of mechanical and electromagnetic waves.

Match each word to its correct definition. Use pages 446-454 in your science textbook to help you. mechanical wave a wave that travels only through matter electromagnetic wave a wave that can travel through empty space or through matter transverse wave a wave in which the disturbance is perpendicular to the direction the wave travels longitudinal wave a wave that makes the particles of a medium move back and forth parallel to the direction the wave travels Match each word to its correct definition. Use pages 446-454 in your science textbook to help you. frequency the number of wavelengths that pass a point each second amplitude the maximum distance a wave varies from its rest position refraction the change in direction of a wave as it changes speed, moving from one medium into another Choose the best answer. Use page 446-454 in your science textbook for help.In which type of wave does the medium travel in a circular motion? electromagnetic longitudinal transverse water Choose the best answer. Use page 446-454 in your science textbook for help.Which is a measure of the energy in a wave? frequency amplitude wave velocity wavelength Choose the best answer. Use page 446-454 in your science textbook for help.Reflection occurs when a wave does what? causes ripples in a pool of water compresses air particles as it travels strikes an object and bounces off of it bends and changes speeds as it travels Choose the best answer. Use page 446-454 in your science textbook for help.What happens as the frequency of a wave increases? its wavelength decreases its wavelength increases its amplitude decreases its amplitude increases Choose the best answer. Use page 446-454 in your science textbook for help.Waves are common in nature because many different _ produce waves. energy sources bodies of water weather conditions Choose the best answer. Use page 446-454 in your science textbook for help._ waves form because there is friction between sea wind and water. water seismic longitudinal Choose the best answer. Use page 446-454 in your science textbook for help.A(n) _ wave is called a seismic wave. water sound earthquake Choose the best answer. Use page 446-454 in your science textbook for help.Seismic waves can be _. transverse longitudinal combination of transverse and longitudinal Choose the best answer. Use page 446-454 in your science textbook for help.Water waves move _. as S waves in circular paths as transverse waves only Choose the best answer. Use page 446-454 in your science textbook for help.All seismic waves are _ waves because they move through matter. water mechanical electromagnetic Choose the best answer. Use page 446-454 in your science textbook for help.True or False: The longer a wave's wavelength is, the lower its frequency will be. true false Choose the best answer. Use page 446-454 in your science textbook for help.True or False: The more energy a wave has, the smaller its amplitude will be. true false Choose the best answer. Use page 446-454 in your science textbook for help.True or False: When a wave changes direction as it moves from one medium to another, diffraction occurs. true false Sort each description into the correct category. Use pages 446-454 in your science textbook for help. transmission the movement of waves through matter reflection occurs when waves bounce back toward their source absorption occurs when some of the waves traveling through matter are converted to thermal energy and remain in the matter Sort each description into the correct category. Use pages 446-454 in your science textbook for help. mechanical waves travel only through matter form when a source of energy causes particles that make up a medium to vibrate the energy of a pebble dropped in water produces these electromagnetic waves travel through empty space or matter form when a charged particle vibrates example: energy from the Sun Use the word bank to label each part of the wave.
