Science Review 2nd Trimester

What is a wave?

• A wave is a solid object that cannot move.

• A wave is a fixed position in space that does not change.

• A wave is a disturbance that transfers energy through space or matter.

• A wave is a type of particle that exists in a vacuum.

What happens in a transverse wave?

• Particles move in a circular motion.

• Particles move perpendicular to wave direction.

• Particles remain stationary while the wave travels.

• Particles move in the same direction as the wave.

How is amplitude defined?

• Amplitude is the average speed of a wave.

• Amplitude is the frequency of a wave.

• Amplitude is the wavelength of a wave.

• Amplitude is the maximum displacement from the equilibrium position in a wave.

What does wavelength measure?

• The frequency of a wave.

• The amplitude of a wave.

• The speed of a wave.

• The distance between successive peaks of a wave.

What is a longitudinal wave?

• A longitudinal wave is a wave that only travels in one direction.

• A longitudinal wave is a wave that travels through a vacuum without any medium.

• A longitudinal wave is a wave where particle displacement is parallel to wave direction.

• A longitudinal wave is a wave where particle displacement is perpendicular to wave direction.

What does pitch refer to in sound?

• Pitch is the loudness of a sound.

• Pitch refers to the duration of a sound.

• Pitch is the perceived frequency of a sound.

• Pitch is the quality of a sound's timbre.

How is volume measured?

• Volume is measured in grams or kilograms.

• Volume is measured in cubic units, such as cubic meters or liters.

• Volume is measured using temperature scales like Celsius or Fahrenheit.

• Volume is measured in square units, such as square meters.

What does GPS stand for?

• Global Positioning System

• Global Positioning Service

• Global Positioning Satellite

• Geographic Positioning System

What is a GPS?

• it is an artifact to enable internet connectivity

• it is used to enhance video streaming quality

• it is a tool that uses satellite to locate position

• it is a tool to provide weather forecasts

How do waves transfer energy?

• Waves transfer energy by creating heat in the medium.

• Waves transfer energy by moving the medium itself from one place to another.

• Waves transfer energy by causing particles in a medium to oscillate, transferring energy through their motion.

• Waves transfer energy by compressing the medium into a solid form.
