WavesAll kinds of waves…

Page 2: Waves All kinds of waves…. Waves Wave characteristics are the same on matter what type of wave we are dealing with

Waves

• Wave characteristics are the same on matter what type of wave we are dealing with.

Page 3: Waves All kinds of waves…. Waves Wave characteristics are the same on matter what type of wave we are dealing with

Wave Types

• Standing wave, Traveling wave, Compression wave

Page 4: Waves All kinds of waves…. Waves Wave characteristics are the same on matter what type of wave we are dealing with

Waves

• Crest, trough, wavelength, frequency, amplitude, wave speed, node are all characteristics that need to be identified.

Anatomy

Crest

Trough

Amplitude

Wavelength

Node

Wave height

Page 6: Waves All kinds of waves…. Waves Wave characteristics are the same on matter what type of wave we are dealing with

Compression Waves

Page 7: Waves All kinds of waves…. Waves Wave characteristics are the same on matter what type of wave we are dealing with

Mechanical Waves

• Must travel through a medium.

Page 8: Waves All kinds of waves…. Waves Wave characteristics are the same on matter what type of wave we are dealing with

Electromagnetic Waves

• No medium

• (Not even an extra-large)

Page 9: Waves All kinds of waves…. Waves Wave characteristics are the same on matter what type of wave we are dealing with

Electromagnetic Waves

• Light will travel through a vacuum

• Sound will not go through a vacuum

???

• What is happening with frequency?

• What is happening with wavelength?

• What is happening with energy?

Page 12: Waves All kinds of waves…. Waves Wave characteristics are the same on matter what type of wave we are dealing with

Energy

• Increases with amplitude

Page 13: Waves All kinds of waves…. Waves Wave characteristics are the same on matter what type of wave we are dealing with

Amplitude

• Light: Brightness

• Sound: Volume

Page 14: Waves All kinds of waves…. Waves Wave characteristics are the same on matter what type of wave we are dealing with

Frequency

• Light: Color

• Sound: Pitch

• There are days…

• I wish I could increase the amplitude of my students…

• Just sayin’…
