Match the terms with their definitions Mechanical wave Wave that needs a medium longitudinal wave transverse wave period time for 1 wavelength frequency number of wavelengths per second Hertz Unit for frequency Electromagnetic wave wave that can travel through a vacuum Label the parts of the waves Word bankcrest, trough, compression, rarefaction crest trough compression rarefaction Two waves with the same wavelength interact. One has an amplitude of +0.42 m and the other wave has an amplitude of -0.18 m. When the two waves exactly overlap, what is the resultant amplitude? 0.6 m 0.24 m -0.6 m -0.24 m Two waves with the same wavelength interact. One has an amplitude of +0.42 m and the other wave has an amplitude of -0.18 m. When the two waves exactly overlap, what type of interference is this? constructive destructive Two waves with the same wavelength interact. One has an amplitude of +0.62 m and the other wave has an amplitude of +0.32 m. When the two waves exactly overlap, what is the resultant amplitude? 0.94 m 0.3 m -0.94 m -0.3 m Two waves with the same wavelength interact. One has an amplitude of +0.62 m and the other wave has an amplitude of +0.32 m. When the two waves exactly overlap, what type of interference is this? constructive destructive What is the air temperature where a tuning fork has a frequency of 534 Hz and a wavelength of 64 cm? You find the wavelength of a tuning fork is 25 cm in a 260C room. What is the frequency?
