Which of the following statements is true regarding transverse and longitudinal waves.
Both transverse and longitudinal waves require a medium and CANNOT travel through empty space.
Both transverse and longitudinal waves are able to travel through a medium AND empty space.
Longitudinal waves require a medium to travel, while transverse waves are able to travel through empty space.
Transverse waves require a medium to travel, while longitudinal waves are able to travel through empty space.
What is the relationship between wavelength and frequency?
When wavelength increases, frequency will also increase.
When wavelength increases, frequency will decrease.
Changing the wavelength will affect the frequency, but changing the frequency does not always affect wavelength.
There is no relationship between wavelength and frequency.
What conclusion can be drawn using the data in the graph below?
Temperature has no effect on the speed of sound in air.
Sound waves travel faster in air at higher densities.
Sound waves travel faster in air at higher temperatures.
Sound waves travel faster in air at lower temperatures.

ultrasound
SONAR (sound navigation and ranging)
noise canceling headphones
directional speakers
cochlear implants
Which of the following would sound most likely travel fastest through?

outer space
Jack and Jill normally leave class and walk to lunch together. Today while leaving class, Jack heard Jill call out behind him and ask him to wait for her. When Jack turned around he was surprised to not see Jill behind him and all he could see was the class walls and open door. He heard Jill's voice again coming from the doorway before seeing her walk through.
What type of wave behavior/interaction does this demonstrate?
reflection
diffraction
refraction
interference
Scientists are able to study the interior of the Earth using seismographs to gather data on the P waves and S waves moving through the Earth as a result of earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or large explosions. One thing this data shows is that the P and S waves bend and curve as they change speeds moving through different layers, substances, or densities within the Earth.
What type of wave behavior/interaction does this demonstrate?
reflection
diffraction
refraction
interference
A class conducts an investigation on wave behaviors and interactions using the setup in the image below. The students notice that when they strike tuning fork A that the ping pong ball resting against tuning fork B will begin to move and bounce off of tuning fork B. At no point during this process did the students or anyone else touch tuning fork B or the ping pong ball to cause it to move.
What type of wave behavior/interaction does this demonstrate?
