Question 1

Give an example of a transverse wave and describe the different parts of the wave

Answer 1

Ocean wave : Parts :1. wavelength the height of the wave or length. Amplitude the height of the wave from the center line. The frequency of a wave is how many waves come in a period of time.

Question 2

Give an example of a compressional wave and describe the parts of the wave.

Answer 2

Sound waves :. Wavelength. rarefaction area of decreased pressure following compression as a longitudinal wave propagates

Question 3

The sun shines through a light rain creating a rainbow. What property of light waves is being demonstrated. Explain your answer.

Answer 3

Refraction when the light goes into the rain drops it gets diffracted and ti makes the appearance of a rainbow

Question 4

Explain how the wavelength and frequency of a wave are related to the amount of energy in a wave.

Answer 4

The leangth of the wave how big it is and how many there is in a period of time. Equal energy
