1.
De:ine
what
a
wave
is?
A
wave
is
the
way
an
energy
moves
from
place
to
place
which
mean
waves
are
everywhere.
For
example
sound
waves
move
from
a
mouth
to
ear
and
light
waves
move
from
a
lightbulb
to
your
eyes.
2.
Name
4
types
of
waves
that
are
around
you?
-Light
Wave
-
Sound
Wave
-
Radio
Waves
-
Cell
phone
ways
3.
Where
do
waves
come
from?
Waves
come
from
vibrating
particles
and
are
made
of
vibrating
particles.
4.
In
a
wave
of
energy,
do
the
particles
move
or
does
the
wave
move?
Explain
your
response.
The
waves
moves.
This
is
because
the
waves
moves
from
place
to
place
therefore
carrying
the
the
energy
from
place
to
place.
However
the
particles
stay
put.
5.
Why
are
waves
described
as
energy-mobiles?
Waves
are
described
as
energy-mobiles
because
it
transfers
energy
from
one
place
to
another.
6.
What
are
the
2
types
of
energy
waves?
1.
Transverse
Waves
2.
Longitude
Waves
7.
De:ine
what
a
transverse
and
a
longitudinal
wave
is.
A
transverse
waves
is
when
the
particles
move
up
and
down
whilst
the
waves
move
left
to
right.
A
longitudinal
wave
is
when
the
particles
move
backwards
and
forwards
because
the
waves
move
forward
and
backward.
8.
What
does
perpendicular
mean?
Perpendicular
means
at
an
angle
to
90
degrees
to
a
line.
9.
What
is
a
medium?
A
medium
is
the
material
thats
in
the
wave.
10.
What
does
parallel
mean?
Parallel
means
having
it
side
by
side
at
a
distance
and
it
will
never
meet.
11.
What
is
a
wavelength?
A
wavelength
is
the
distance
between
the
crest
of
one
wave
to
another.
12.
De:ine
what
the
frequency
of
a
wave
is?
The
frequency
of
a
wave
is
the
number
of
full
waves
in
a
second.
Measured
in
Hertz
13.
In
sounds
waves,
what
does
the
wavelength
determine?
In
sound
waves
the
wavelength
determines
the
pitch
of
the
sound.
14.
In
electromagnetic
waves
what
does
the
wavelength
determine?
In
electromagnetic
waves
the
wavelength
determines
whether
the
wave
is
radio
or
magnetic
etc.
15.
De:ine
what
amplitude
means?
Amplitude
means
the
maximum
distance
that
each
particle
moves
away
from
its
usual
position.
16.
What
does
amplitude
determine
for
sound
and
light
waves?
In
sound
waves,
amplitude
determines
the
loudness
of
the
sound.
In
light
waves,
amplitude
determines
the
intensity
or
brightness
of
the
light.
17.
Write
down
all
of
the
In
a
nutshell
notes.
-
Waves
move
energy
from
one
place
to
another
therefore
also
calling
them
energy-mobiles.
-
Waves
move
but
the
particles
dont
move
they
only
vibrate
-
A
transverse
wave
is
a
wave
where
the
particles
moves
perpendicular
to
the
medium
and
the
longitudinal
wave
moves
parallel
to
the
medium.
-
The
wavelength
is
the
distance
between
to
like
parts
of
the
wave.
-
Amplitude
is
the
height
of
a
wave.
-
Particles
in
a
wave
are
moving
a
distance
against
a
force.
They
are
having
work
done
on
them
and
they
can
do
work.

1.
How
does
energy
move?
Energy
moves
in
waves.
2.
True
or
false:
