Test Description: Wave Energy
Instructions: Answer all questions to get your test result.
1) Which is the lowest point on a transverse wave?
A
amplitude
B
crest
C
trough
D
wavelength
2) Which property of a wave increases as the wave's energy increases?
A
wavelength
B
pitch
C
frequency
D
amplitude
3) What occurs when the crest of one wave overlaps the trough of another wave?
A
Constructive interference
B
Destructive interference
C
Wave cancellation
D
Amplitude shift interference
4) Why can't you see your reflection in a brick wall?
A
Light rays are only reflected in one direction from the rough surface.
B
No light is reflected from a brick wall.
C
Reflection of light from a rough surface is regular reflection.
D
Light rays are reflected in many directions from the uneven surface of a brick wall.
5) Identify the statement that correctly describes the reason sound waves can not travel in outer space
A
Sound waves are electromagnetic, and therefore they are unable to travel in outer space.
B
Sound waves are compressional, meaning matter in the medium travels back and forth in the same direction the wave travels.
C
Sound waves can not travel in outer space because the gas molecules in outer space are too far apart.
D
Sound waves are unable to travel in outer space because they can not travel in medium.
6) Which term describes the process in which two waves overlap and form a new wave?
A
diffraction
B
interference
C
refraction
D
wave joining
7) When does reflection occur?
A
when a wave causes ripples in a pool of water
B
when a wave bends and changes speeds as it travels
C
when a wave strikes an object and bounces off of it
D
when a wave compresses air particles as it travels
8) In which region of a compressional wave are particles far apart?
A
crest
B
rest position
C
rarefaction
D
trough
9) What is one way sound waves are different from light waves?
A
Sound waves are a source of energy but light waves are not.
B
Sound waves travel through space but light waves can not.
C
Sound waves travel at a slower speed than light waves.
D
Sound waves have shorter wavelengths than light waves.
10) Which is true about the relationship between light and the electromagnetic spectrum?
A
Visible light is the only part of the electromagnetic spectrum that can be detected by the human eye.
B
Visible light has more energy than the rest of the electromagnetic spectrum.
C
Visible light is the only part of the electromagnetic spectrum that can travel through space
D
Visible light travels slower than the rest of the electromagnetic spectrum.
