We should not only be a hearer of the word, but also a ___ of the word
doer
The cochlea is like a rolled up triangle which allows us to hear what part of sound
Pitch
Who was the first person to organize a Levitical choir
David
According the Bible, who was the father of music
Jubal
What phenomenon is illustrated when sound waves cause a glass to shatter
Resonance
Describe Worship
Worship is when you praise God in music. It allows you to show how much you love God. I think that with worship, you can feel closer to God.
When measuring the amplitude of a wavelength, at what point of the chart do you start measuring
Midpoint
What do we call the measurement of the loudness of sound
Amplitude
What do we call waves that causes a medium to vibrate at right angles to the direction in which the wave travels
Transverse
What do we call a wave in which the vibration of the medium is parallel to the direction the wave travels
Longitudinal
Resonance occurs when one vibrating object transfers energy to a second object causing it to vibrate. The energy transfer is most efficient when the second object has the same
Frequency
What were the first two musical instruments mentioned in the Bible
Lyre and pipe
What do we call the speed of an object in a particular direction
Velocity
Sound travels at about
340 meters per second
How many more times are you likely to be hit by lightning than attacked by a shark
30
Two things that lightning travels through
Plumbing and wires
If a rope is shaken and produces a wave length of 0.8 meters with the crest of the wave passing a certain point 3 times per second. What is the velocity of the wave?
2/4 m/s
If you use the metric system, what number do you divide the seconds you counted between seeing the lightning and hearing the thunder
3
Safest structure during a thunder storm
House
How many seconds between lightning and thunder mean the strike is one mile away
5 seconds
The loud explosive noise a plane makes when we hear the shock wave that comes from an it when it is traveling at or above the speed of sound is called
A sonic boom
The shock waves formed during a supersonic boom are formed by
Air that can't get out of the way fast enough
The sonic barrier is better known as the ___ barrier
Sound
If a sound wave is moving toward your ear with the velocity of 5.0 m/s and its frequency is 2.5 hertz, what is its wavelength
2.0 meters
Four things you should avoid during a thunder storm
What do we call waves when the crest of one wave fills the trough of another and they cancel each other out
Destructive interference
If you have two speakers in a room with the same sounds at the same frequency, what amplitude would you have
2 X the loudness
An antinode is
The half way point between nodes
The area between two crests on a sound wave is called the
Wavelength
What allows us to hear the loudness of a sound
The wave movement from crest to trough and back again
The beginning point or end point of a sound wave is called
A node
Plucking a guitar string and watching the string vibrate with the wave appearing not to move down the string is a good example of
A standing wave
Destructive interference results in waves that _ one another
Cancel out
When two crests from two wave sources meet, what is it called
Supercrest
What kind of interference do you get if you have two speakers playing music in a room where their crests meet
Constructive
Sound traveling through open doors and bending around corners is a good example of
diffraction
What famous scientist mistakenly stated that light was not a wave because he couldn't see constructive and destructive interference
Newton
What happens after two displacement waves pass through each other
After the waves pass through each other, destructive interference happens. The crest overlaps and fills in the trough so that no wave is produced until the waves pass through each other.
What does sound need to travel that light does not need
Medium
What area of the electromagnetic radiation spectrum tans your skin
Ultraviolet rays
What is the first thing God says is good when He created the world
Light
Which area of the electromagnetic radiation spectrum kills cancer cells
Gamma rays
What area of the electromagnetic radiation spectrum detects the energy our body releases so we can see people through walls with specialized cameras
Infrared
What do we call the radiation that allows us to see through the skin to visualize the bones
X-rays
Which part of the electromagnetic radiation spectrum does the rainbow appear in
Visible light
What can go faster than light
Nothing
The higher the frequency light is on the electromagnetic radiation spectrum the more ___ it has
Energy
Whose work suggested that we should view light as a train of particles.
Einstein
Why is Jesus "the light of the world."
Jesus is the light of the world because he created the world. Jesus controls everything in the world, including the sun. Without the sun, no one could see. Jesus keeps the sun shining because he loves us. This is how He is the light of the world.
Why is artificial light important to mankind
Without lights, doing things daily wouldn't be easy. At night, it would be impossible to see. You might hurt yourself several times trying to get to your bed. Or, if you worked in mines, you couldn't see a thing without a flashlight, thus not letting you do your job. Basically, artificial lights are very important, and everyone could live their everyday life with them.
Why were some chocolate squares softer than others when they were microwaves
Not all parts of the microwave are warm. There are cold spots that doesn't heat up as much as other parts. This is why there is a spinner in the microwave. It spins the food around, so each part of the food gets all the warm spots in the microwave. This makes sure that when you eat the food, it isn't cold at all.
What do we call the vividness of a color
Saturation
What do we call the brightness of a color
Saturation
Technically color consists of electromagnetic
Waves
Newton also discovered that it is not the rays of light themselves that are colored but the perception in our
Brain
In the formula v = f λ, what measurement is used for the frequency of the wavelength
Hertz
In the formula v = fλ what does the f stand for
Frequency
The only thing that distinguishes one light ray from another is its
Wavelength
The maximum distance that the particles a of light wave's medium vibrate from their rest position is called
Amplitude
A thin coil of wire stretched between two thicker wires in an incandescent light bulb is called a
Filament
One of the main disadvantages to the incandescent light is that
Only 10% of the energy makes light
What kind of gas is inside a neon sign
Inert
