Use this diagram to identify parts of a wave in questions #1 - 4:
Question 1
1.
On the wave diagram, A is the...
Question 2
2.
On the wave diagram, B is the...
Question 3
3.
On the wave diagram, C is the...
Question 4
4.
On the wave diagram, D is the...
Question 5
5.
Use the waves diagrams shown above: Which of these waves has a greater wavelength?
Question 6
6.
Draw two waves. One with high amplitude and one with low amplitude. Label which is high amplitude vs low amplitude. (keep everything else about the waves the same)
Question 7
7.
Write down two research questions we can investigate about the patterns in waves:
Question 8
8.
Does amplitude affect wave speed?
Question 9
9.
Does amplitude affect the frequency of a wave?
Question 10
10.
Does amplitude affect the wavelength of a wave?
Question 11
11.
Does tension affect the wave speed of a wave?
Question 12
12.
Draw two waves. One with high frequency and one with low frequency. (keep everything else about the waves the same)
