- True
- Time Period
- A wavelength is the distance between repeating patterns on a wave.
- See Sketch
- See Sketch
- Hertz (Hz)
- a: Transverse b: Transverse c: Longitudinal d: Transverse
- Two waves collide in interference; they have points where they increase in size (constructive) and points where they decrease in size (destructive).
- Standing waves appear to stay in one place (only moving back and forth). Regular waves, like ocean waves, appear to move from one place to another.
- On a standing wave, a node is a point of no movement, and an antinode is a point of maximum movement.
- Guitar string, organ pipe, air inside a bottle when you blow across it, piano string, etc
- The size decreases, making the amplitude smaller.
- 6 meters, because the amplitude is only from the midpoint to the top, not the top to bottom.
- a: Time would increase because gravity decreases. b: Time would decrease because gravity would increase. c: Time would decrease because gravity appears to increase. d: Time would increase because gravity decreases.
- If the frequency of a wave triples, then the period would be three times smaller or 1/3 its starting value.
- If the frequency of a wave increases, its wavelength decreases.
- One wavelength passes by during one time period, be a period is, by definition, the time it takes to complete ONE cycle of anything.
- False
- False (just like for ANY wave)
- The time period is 60 seconds; the frequency is 1/60 Hz or 0.0167 Hz.
- The combined amplitude is 18 feet tall.
- The combined wave is zero feet tall.
- The frequency is 1/8 Hz or 0.125 Hz.
- The wave speed is 10.8 m/s.
- The period is 5 seconds, because it’s the time to complete one cycle. The frequency is 1/5 Hz or 0.2 Hz.
- Since the period is 15 seconds, the frequency is 1/15 Hz or 0.067 Hz
- The wave speed is 12 m/s.
- The wave speed is 3.14 m/s.
- The wavelength is 2 meters.
- The wave speed is 2.25 m/s.
