- Q1What is a wave?A material through which a waves travels.A type of wave where the medium moves at right angles to the direction the wave is traveling.the highness or loudness of a soundA rhythmic disturbance that carries energy through matter and space.20s
- Q2What is a Longitudinal Wave?A material through which a waves travels.A type of wave where matter vibrates perpendicular direction to the wave movement.A type of wave where matter vibrates in the same direction as the wave travels.A rhythmic disturbance that carries energy through matter and space.20s
- Q3What are the two parts of a Longitudinal Wave?Compression and RarefactionCompression and TroughCrest and TroughRarefaction and Crest20s
- Q4Which part is the compression?The compressed part, the part with a lower frequency.The spread out part, with lower frequency.The compressed part, the part with a higher frequency.The spread out part, with higher frequency.20s
- Q5Which part is the rarefaction?The spread out part, with higher frequency.The compressed part, the part with a higher frequency.The compressed part, the part with a lower frequency.The spread out part, with lower frequency.20s
- Q6What is a transverse wave?a type of wave where the medium moves at right angles to the direction the wave is traveling.A material through which a waves travels.A rhythmic disturbance that carries energy through matter and space.A type of wave where matter vibrates in the same direction as the wave travels.20s
- Q7What is pitch and what is it determined by?The highness and lowness of a sound which is determined by the period of a sound wave.The highness and lowness of a sound which is determined by the frequency of a sound wave.The loudness of a sound which is determined by the amplitude of a sound wave.The highness and lowness of a sound which is determined by the amplitude of a sound wave.20s
- Q8How does frequency affect pitch?If the wave's frequency decreases, the pitch also increases.It does not affect the pitch of the sound.If the wave's frequency increases, the pitch also decreases.If the wave's frequency increases, the pitch also increases.20s
- Q9What is intensity and its units of measure?The amount of energy in each wave: measured in hertz (Hz).The speed of a wave: measured in meter per second (m/s).The number of waves: measured in decibels (dB).The amount of energy in each wave: measured in decibels (dB).20s
- Q10What two things does the speed of sound depend on?The medium through which the wave travels and the temperature of the medium.The medium through which the wave travels and the frequency of the wave.The medium through which the wave travels and the speed of the wave.The amplitude of the wave and the temperature of the medium.20s
- Q11It refers to the number of waves crests that pass a point during one second; measured in Hertz (Hz)SpeedAmplitudeFrequencyWavelength20s
- Q12It is the distance between identical points on two adjacent waves.AmplitudeSpeedFrequencyWavelength20s
- Q13How does amplitude affect the amount of energy a wave carries?The larger the amplitude of a wave the less energy it carries.It does not affect the carried energy.The shorter the amplitude of a wave the more energy it carries.The larger the amplitude of a wave the more energy it carries.20s
- Q14How does frequency of a wave affect wavelength?As frequency increases, wavelength stays the sameAs frequency increases, wavelength increases, tooAs frequency increases, wavelength decreases.As frequency decreases, wavelength stays the same20s
- Q15A wave produced when a sound is made that is responsible for carrying the sound to the ear.sound wavesoundamplitudepitch20s
