Question 10
10.

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?

Question 11
11.

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?

Question 12
12.

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?

Question 13
13.
The image below shows two sound waves interacting with each other when the compressions of each wave are completely opposite.

This demonstrates __________ .
This will cause __________ .

SONAR (sound navigation and ranging)
noise canceling headphones
directional speakers
cochlear implants
interference
interference
reflection
