Chapter 1 - Waves

Horizontales
A substance that makes possible the transfer of energy from one location to another
Frequency is measured in units called ____.
the point on a wave with the greatest positive value or upward displacement in a cycle
the angle that a ray of light or the like, reflected from a surface, makes with a normal to the surface at the point of reflection
The waves produced by earthquakes.
When vibrations traveling through an object match the object's natural frequency.
The crests and troughs of the standing wave
the spreading of waves around obstacles
the interference of two or more waves of equal frequency and phase, resulting in their mutual reinforcement and producing a single amplitude equal to the sum of the amplitudes of the individual waves

The distance between two corresponding parts of a wave.
Verticales
the lowest point on a wave
When the amplitudes of two waves combine with each other producing a smaller amplitude
The number of complete waves that pass a given point in a certain amount of time.
disturbance that transfers energy from one place to another
the change in direction of a wave passing from one medium to another caused by its change in speed
At certain points, destructive interference causes the two waves to combine to produce an amplitude of zero.
angle between a ray incident on a surface and the line perpendicular to the surface at the point of incidence (called as normal)
periodic motion of the particles of an elastic body or medium
Disturbance in matter that transfers energy through the matter
segment of one cycle of a longitudinal wave

To detect and measure earthquake waves, scientists use instruments called _____.
A seismic wave that travels across the the Earth as opposed to through it
The net effect of the combination of two or more wave trains moving on intersecting or coincident paths
Earthquakes that occur underwater can cause huge surface waves on the ocean.
the capacity of a physical system to perform work
as the change in the direction of a wavefront at the interface between two different media, bouncing the wavefront back into the original medium
