Waves Review Lesson

What is the relationship between amplitude and energy?

• As energy increases, amplitude decreases

• Energy does not affect amplitude

• As energy increases, amplitude increases

Mechanical waves travel fastest in a solid because

• The particles are closest together

• The particles are the most spread out

• The particles have heated up

• The particles have cooled down

All electromagnetic waves can travel through empty space.

• True

• False

Amplitude is

• how far the particles in a medium move from it rest position

• the distance from crest to crest

Refraction only occurs when the wave enters a new medium form an angle, true or false?

• True

• False
