Comparing Wave Properties & Energy. Essential Standard. 6.P.1Understand the properties of waves and the wavelike property of energy in earthquakes, light and sound waves.. Clarifying Objective. 6.P .. Which of the following waves . requires a material medium through which to travel? . (a) Sound . (b) Television . (c) Radio. (d) X ray. Q1. (a) Sound . Sound is a mechanical wave, transferred through air, or other media, by vibrations passed along through the media. by meaning that it requires a medium through which to travel. . An old riddle ….. If a tree falls in a forest, and no one hears it, does the tree make a sound?. What is “sound”?. Sound Waves. To a scientist, a tree makes a sound whether someone hears it or not.. Wave Properties. There are 6 main properties, or interactions, of waves that occur when a wave comes in contact with another wave , or a boundary. . The 6 Interactions of waves are. Interference. Diffraction. Producing and Detecting sound. What is sound?. The sound you hear is sound waves that can only travel through matter.. Sound waves are longitudinal waves. . Sources of sound. Every sound comes from a vibration, which is the energy that the wave uses to carry the sound.. REMINDER!. DON’T FORGET. TO . STUDY!. . Electromagnetic waves. Mechanical waves. Interference.

Vogt, EdD. Center for . Educational Outreach. Baylor College of Medicine. What Is Energy?. Energy is hard to define because it changes form. Energy causes a change in the condition of matter, or state changes (such as burning a candle). Or it also can mean movement (such as a vibration or change in physical location). .
