Delimiter between question and answer:

Tips:

  • No column headers.
  • Each line maps to a question.
  • If the delimiter is used in a question, the question should be surrounded by double quotes: "My, question","My, answer"
  • The first answer in the multiple choice question must be the correct answer.

a disturbance that transfers energy from place to place
waves
A repeated back-and-forth or up-and-down motion
vibration
lowest point of a transverse wave
trough
waves that move at right angles to the direction in which the waves travel
transverse waves
The distance an object travels per unit of time; how "fast" it moves
speed
The bending of a wave as it passes at an angle from one medium to another
refraction
the bouncing back of a wave when it hits a surface through which it cannot pass.
reflection
part in a longitudinal wave where the particles of the medium are far apart
rarefaction
the material through which a mechanical wave travels (solid, liquid, gas)
medium
waves that require or need to travel through a medium (ex: sound waves)
Mechanical waves
waves that move parallel to the direction in which the waves travel
Longitudinal waves
the interaction between waves that meet
interference
Unit of measurement for frequency Hint: abbreviation Hz
Hertz
the number of complete waves that pass a given point in a certain amount of time
frequency
The ability to do work or cause change
energy
The ability to do work or cause change
energy
waves that do not need a medium to travel through (ex: visible light waves)
electromagnetic waves
The bending of a wave as it moves around an obstacle or passes through a narrow opening
diffraction
highest point of a transverse wave
crest
part in a longitudinal wave where the particles of the medium are close together
compression
tells the amount of energy carried by a wave; how "loud" it is
amplitude
