WAVES

  • What are the three types of waves?

    light, sound and ocean

  • What do all waves do?

    they all vibrate

  • What is a Transverse wave?

    A Transverse wave is a wave that is vibration’s perpendicular to the direction of the wave

  • What is a Longitudinal wave?

    A longitudinal wave is a wave which has the vibration’s parallel to the direction of the wave

  • What is the Amplitude of a wave?

    The Amplitude of as wave is the distance from the peak to the middle of the wave

  • What are the three types of waves?

    Water, light and sound waves

  • What do all waves do?

    They all vibrate

  • What is a Transverse wave?

    A Transverse wave is a wave’s vibration that is perpendicular to the direction of the wave

  • What is a Longitudinal wave?

    A Longitudinal wave is a wave’s vibration that is parallel to the direction of the wave

  • What is the Amplitude of a wave?

    Amplitude is the distance of the wave from the top to the middle

  • What is the wavelength of a wave?

    The wavelength of a wave is the length of a wave

  • What is the frequency of a wave?

    The number of times it occurs in a second- Also called Hertz per second

  • Name the equation of the speed of a wave.

    speed=frquencyxwavelength

    Light Waves

    • What angle must be the same to an incident angle?

      refractive angle
