PPT-Waves

Junior Science Waves transfer energy 1a Waves are a means of transferring energy from one place to another without also transferring matter Some waves need a medium matter to travel through and are known as .

Sound waves, ultrasound, compressional (longitudinal) waves, pressure, particle displacement, medical imaging, superposition principle, stadning waves in air columns, constructive interference, destructive interference, boundary conditions, pipe – open and closed ends, nodes, antinodes, speed of sound in air, period, frequency, wavelength, propagation constant (wave number), angular frequency, normal modes of vibrations, natural frequencies of vibration, fundamental, harmonics, overtones, harmonic series, frequency spectrum, radian, phase, sinusoidal functions, wind musical instruments, beats, beat frequency, Doppler Effect, Doppler radar, shock waves. Periodic Motion – any repeated motion with regular time intervals. Simple Harmonic Motion – vibration about an equilibrium position in which a restoring force is proportional to the displacement from equilibrium . 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. . Seismic . Waves. . are shock . waves . given off by earthquakes. . There are 2 types:. 1. . Body Waves. . originate from the . focus. (. F. ). travel . through. . the earth. . They’re used to locate . 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. Warm-Up: February 17/18, 2016. Vibrations and Waves. Chapter 14. A . periodic motion . repeats in a regular cycle.. Examples include:. Pendulums (such as on a grandfather clock).
