What are waves and what do they do? Aim Key words Describe how waves move. Explain the basic properties of waves. Compare transverse and longitudinal waves.

Have you ever wondered The big picture What does a wave transfer?
The two groups are: Mechanical waves and electromagnetic waves (EM) Did you know, there are 2 groups of waves with 2 different types of waves?! Mechanical waves have two subgroups: Transverse and Longitudinal Waves.
EM Waves 7 types Constructive- Low energy, minimum disturbance to the reef Real Men in violet underwear (are) extremely gorgeous Radio, Micro, infra red, visible, ultra violet, x-ray, gamma ray
Transverse waves
Copy this diagram into your books Amplitude Wavelength λ Trough Crest Node
LO: Understand the similarities and differences between types of waves Practical: Modelling waves The wave travels away from the source. The direction of the wave is at right angles to the movement of the source. In a transverse wave, the coils do not travel horizontally, each coil of the Slinky just vibrates up and down. source moves up and down coils vibrate up and down direction of wave Direction of energy cgrahamphysics.com transfer 2016
Definitions Amplitude (A): displacement from rest position Wavelength (λ): the distance between a particular point on a wave and the same point on the next wave Frequency (f): the number of waves passing a particular point number of waves per second, measured in Hertz (Hz) f = time Period (T): the time taken for the source to produce one wave Time and frequency are related by the equation frequency, f in Hertz = f = 1 T or T = 1 f 1 time period T,(in seconds)
What is the frequency? Waves: Frequency Wave Cycles Time (s) Freq (Hz) 6 2 3 10 2 5 1 2 0.5
Longitudinal Wave Constructive- Low energy, minimum disturbance to the reef
Longitudinal Wave λ Direction of energy transfer
LO: Understand the similarities and differences between types of waves Practical: Modelling waves The wave travels away from the source. The direction of the wave is parallel to the movement of the source. In a longitudinal wave, the coils do not travel horizontally, each coil of the Slinky just vibrates left and right. source moves left and right coils vibrate left and right direction of wave
Representation of sound waves Remember: Direction of energy transfer is parallel to wave motion Particles on wave move back and forth
Comparison longitudinal Sound Waves transverse Remember: Direction of energy transfer in a longitudinal wave is parallel to wave motion Particles on wave move back and forth A pressure wave can be transformed to be displayed as a transverse wave using cgrahamphysics.com an electrical 2016 signal in an oscilloscope
Oscilloscope Longitudinal pressure wave in Electrical signal wave out
Wave front λ A wave front is an imaginary line or surface that joined all adjacent points which have the same phase of vibration on the wave. Any two points on a wave are said to be in phase when they have completed identical fractions of their periodic motion.
The energy that a wave has depends on: -The frequency f -The speed v -The wavelength λ - The amplitude A Whiteboards: Waves are formed So, What why is when do the you link winds think between blow some waves across waves are the bigger and sea s the than surface. wind? others?

Key words Displacement distance from the rest position Amplitude (A) maximum displacement from rest position Frequency (f) number of waves per second Period (T) time it takes for the source to produce one wave Wavelength (λ) distance from one crest to the next or similar Longitudinal particles vibrate parallel to wave motion Transverse particles vibrate perpendicular to wave motion Compression areas of high pressure Rarefaction areas of low pressure Particles a point on a wave Vibration a rapid, repeated linear motion Wave front - an imaginary line that represents the distance between two crests
