PPT-Waves & Energy Vocabulary

Energy Wave Amplitude Conduction Convection Radiation Color spectrum Wavelength Potential energy Kinetic energy Light energy Chemical energy Mechanical energy What is Energy Energy is defined as the ability to do work. S8P4. Students will explore the wave nature of sound and electromagnetic radiation. . a. Identify the characteristics of electromagnetic and mechanical waves. . What are waves?. Waves carry energy. Rhythmic disturbances that carry energy without carrying matter are called waves.. Pages 8-12. 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.. Section 1: What are Waves. SWBAT: . Explain . the relationship among waves, energy and matter. Science Starter. 1. Name . 3-5 types of . waves.. 2. What . do you think creates waves on the ocean?. When you are relaxing on an air mattress in a pool and someone does a cannonball dive off the diving board, you suddenly find yourself bobbing up and down.. First a little . vocab. …. WAVE: . A periodic disturbance in a solid, liquid or gas. Some waves (light) can travel through empty space. MEDIUM:. Matter or space through which waves travel. I. Waves transfer energy. Waves. Waves. rhythmic . disturbances (vibrations) . that . transfer energy through matter . or. space . carry energy from one place to another. Very disturbing!. Waves. Water Waves. How does the video display what a wave is?. There will be twelve total. Hold onto these sheets. . Periodically, I will collect them for 5 points apiece which will add some good points to your grade provided you have the sheets. . You will get a new list each new topic. These four word words will be on the next test and we will try and use them periodically so that you can get used to them.. Waves transfer energy!. A wave does not carry matter . It only moves matter as it travels through it.. Waves. Compression (longitudinal) waves . are waves in which the particles of the medium move in a direction . Section 1. Objectives. 1. Explain the relationship among waves, energy, and matter. 2. Describe the difference between transverse waves and compressional waves. A. Waves Carry Energy. Waves (rhythmic disturbances that carry energy without carrying matter) can carry energy by itself or with 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. a. Identify the characteristics of electromagnetic and mechanical waves. . What are waves?. Waves carry energy. Rhythmic disturbances that carry energy without carrying matter are called waves.. Models of Waves. The ability to do work or cause change.. What are the different forms of Energy?. Energy has a number of different forms, all of which measure the ability of an object to do work on or change another object.. - Jon . Kabat. -Zinn. Waves are moving . energy. !. Most waves wind-driven. Moving energy along ocean/air interface:. Wind main disturbing force. Boundary between and within fluids with different densities. 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..
