PPT-What are Waves?

Pages 812 1 A rhythmic disturbance that carries energy but not matter 2 A type of wave that can travel only through matter 3 Material through which a wave travels This can be a solid liquid or a gas.

Wave. —a repeating movement or disturbance that transfers energy through matter or space. . All waves carry energy without transporting matter from place to place. . Earthquake. – shaking and trebling that results from the movement of rock beneath Earth’s surface.. Plate movement causes earthquakes from stress and faults in Earth’s crust. When the rock breaks earthquakes happen. Prairie High School Physics. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.. Chapter Contents. Section 1: Oscillations and Periodic Motion (This week).

S8P4. . Students will explore the wave nature of sound and electromagnetic radiation. . Identify . the characteristics of electromagnetic and . mechanical waves. . . b. Describe how the behavior of light waves . Electromagnetic Radiation. Electromagnetic waves perpendicular waves combing the electric and magnetic fields. . Electromagnetic waves are produced when an electric charge vibrates or accelerates and can travel through empty space or through matter. . Before the waves are made the particles are same distance apart. While waves moves through the medium the particles . compress. together, then they spread further apart (stretched areas)- . rarefaction.. A wave is any disturbance that transmits energy through matter or empty space.. Energy can be carried away from it’s source by a wave. As a wave travels, it does work on everything in it’s path. Wave. Repeating disturbance or movement. Carries energy through matter and space. Vibrations. Anything that moves in a rhythmic patter. Up and down. Back and forth. What is a Wave. All waves are produced when something vibrates. 2022-2023 Season. Russ Burleson. geaux15@hotmail.com. . 1. Agenda. Binder Check/Homework review. Mechanical Wave overview. Transverse Waves. Surface Waves. Longitudinal Waves (general). Sound Waves (Longitudinal). Energy is moving, not water. orbital motion. energy is transferred via circular motions. water (and gull) return to original position. the wave form moves forward. Motion decreases with depth. At. a depth of ½ of the wavelength, the motion is not significant.. Earthquakes-Tsunamis. Graviational. attraction-Tides. Wind waves move energy, not matter. Wind waves- Growth. Wind strength- must be moving faster than waves. Wind duration-longer creates larger waves. The Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell (1831–1879) was the first person to truly understand the fundamental nature of light. . He proved in 1865 that an electromagnetic disturbance should propagate in free space with a speed equal to that of light..
