- a

A wave whose medium oscillates at right angles to the direction of the waves' energy. - b The matter that transmits the energy of the wave. Does not travel with the wave's energy.
- c When two waves interact and result in decreased amplitude.
- d When a wave encounters a boundary and as a result, loses some or all of its energy.

5 Multiple Choice Questions
- Are absorbed by bones.
- the place in a standing wave where there is maximum displacement

The highest point of a wave.
The interaction between 2 or more waves.- A stationary wave pattern formed in a medium when two sets of identical waves pass through the medium in opposite directions.
5 True/False Questions
-
Simple Harmonic Motion →

Motion that repeats. -
Amplitude → The distance from equilibrium point to the highest or lowest point of a wave. In mechanical waves it is proportional to the energy of the wave.
-
Longitudinal wave → A wave whose medium oscillates parallel to the direction of the waves' energy.
-
Diffraction → The bending of a wave due to a change in the medium's properties.
-
Compression → A region of high pressure of the medium in a longitudinal wave.
