Title: Welcome to 306!


1
Welcome to 306!
  • Today is a new marking period a new start!
  • DO NOW
  • Please write three goals you have for yourself in
    Integrated Science for the second marking period.

2
Types of Waves
  • Section 11.1

3
Waves
  • A disturbance that transmits energy through
    matter or space

4
Waves
  • Most waves move through matter called a medium.
  • Ex. Waves traveling through water.

5

6
Types of Waves
  • 1. Mechanical Waves
  • a wave that requires a medium through which to
    travel
  • Most type of waves
  • Ex. Sound, seismic

7
Types of Waves
  • 2. Electromagnetic Waves
  • waves caused by the disturbance in electric and
    magnetic fields and that does not require a
    medium.
  • (light radiation waves)

8
What do Waves Do?
  • When waves travel through media they are doing
    work (energy transferred).
  • Ex. Sound traveling in your ear causes vibrates
    throughout your ear

10
What do Waves Do?
  • Ex. Shock waves move the earth during an
    earthquake.
  • Ex. Tsunami waves move anything in their path

14
How a Wave Travels
  • As wave travels in air, the waves spread out in
    spheres
  • the sphere will get bigger and bigger as they
    move farther away

15
(No Transcript)
16
How a Wave Travels
  • Why is it more damaging to your ears if you are
    standing next to a speaker rather than a 100
    meters away?

17
How a Wave Travels
  • Each sphere carries the same amount of energy
  • But the energy is more spread out of a greater
    distance.

18
Speaker
Sound waves
19
Vibrations and Waves
  • Most waves are caused by a vibrating object,
    which will then cause other objects to vibrate
  • Vibrations will transfer energy from PE to KE.

20
Vibrations and Waves
  • simple harmonic motion--vibration would continue
    forever
  • Damped harmonic motion transfers the energy and
    the vibration will fade out.
  • Ex. Shock absorbers on cars and bikes.

22
Wave Vibration Types
  • 1. Transverse Waves
  • -a wave that causes the particles of the medium
    to vibrate perpendicular to the direction of the
    wave.
  • The Wave at a stadium is a good illustration.
  • Ex. Light waves

25
Wave Vibration Types
  • 2. Longitudinal Waves
  • -a wave that causes the particles of the medium
    to vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave.
  • they expand and compress.
  • Ex. Sound waves

26

27
Wave Vibration Types
  • 3. Surface Waves
  • -waves that are both transverse or longitudinal.
  • -Circular motion
  • -ex. Ocean waves

28
(No Transcript)
29
Wave Types
  • Mechanical waves
  • -can be transverse, longitudinal , or surface
    waves
  • Electromagnetic (light)
  • -waves will only be transverse.

DO NOW
  • EAWV SCCARHATRISTECI
  • UNSCRAMBLE THE TERMS ABOVE TO FIND OUT WHAT WE
    ARE LEARNING ABOUT TODAY!
  • Be Ready to hear an important message!

31
Characteristics of Waves
  • 11.2

32
Wave Properties
  • all transverse waves have similar shapes, no
    matter the size of the wave.
  • The shape is called a sine curve or sine
    wave.

33
Sine Wave
34
Wave Parts
  • Crest
  • Highest point of a transverse wave
  • Trough
  • lowest point of a transverse wave

35
Wave Parts
  • Amplitude
  • -The vertical distance that particles vibrate
    from their normal position when a wave passes
  • measures the intensity of wave.
  • -ex. Loudness, brightness

36
Wave Parts
  • Wavelength
  • -The distance between any two successive
    identical parts of a wave
  • Represented by the symbol lambda (?)
  • Measured in a degree of meters

Wave Properties
  • 1. Wavelength
  • -measures the size of the wave

40
Wave Properties
  • 2. Amplitude
  • -measures the intensity (strength) of the wave

41
Wave Properties
  • 3. Frequency
  • -the number of full wavelengths that pass a point
    in a particular period of time (rate)
  • -Represented by the symbol (Æ’)
  • -Measured in hertz (Hz) beat/sec
  • -Your radio dials are in megahertz

42
Wave Properties
  • 4. Period (time)
  • -The time required for one full wavelength to
    pass a certain point
  • -Represented by the symbol (T)
  • -Measured in seconds

43

44
Frequency, wavelength, and Period
  • Wavelength and period will increase when
    frequency decreases.
  • ? ?, T, ?, then f ?

45
Frequency and Period
  • You can calculate frequency and period from each
    other
  • T1/f or f1/T

46
Frequency and Sound
  • We hear sounds from the range 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz
  • determines the pitch

47

48
Pitch and Loudness
49
Frequency and Light
  • We see light from the range 4x1014 Hz red to
    8x1014 Hz violet
  • Frequency determines the energy and color
  • Red is the easiest to see, violet is the hottest
    (most energetic)

51
Wave Properties
  • 5. Wave Speed
  • -the speed at which a wave passes through a
    medium.
  • -Waves travel at different speeds in different
    media phases (s, l, g).

52
Mechanical Wave Speed
  • These waves travel fastest in solids and the
    slowest in gases
  • Why? (essay question)

53
sonic boom
54
Light Wave Speed
  • all electromagnetic waves travel at the same
    speed in empty space. (3 x 108 m/s)
  • Light waves slow down as they pass through media.

55

56
Wave Speed Equations
  • Speedwavelength/period
  • v?/T
  • Can also use
  • Speedfrequency x wavelength
  • v f x ?

57
Examples
  • A piano string vibrates with a frequency of 264
    Hz. If the waves have a wavelength of 1.3 m,
    what is the speed of sound in air?

58
Examples
  • v ? f
  • speed (1.30 m) (264 Hz)
  • speed 343 m/s

59
Examples
  • A string with a
  • wavelength of 1.30 m and
  • a period of 0.00379 s is
  • played. What is the
  • speed of the wave?

60
Examples
  • V ?/T
  • speed1.30 m/0.00379 s
  • speed 343 m/s

61
Doppler Effect
  • an observed change in the frequency of a wave
    when the source or observer is moving
  • Object approaches with high frequency but low
    wavelength, but as it passes the frequency lowers
    as the wavelength increases

62

63
Doppler effect
64
Standing Waves
  • wave that appears not to move along the medium.
  • two regions

65

2. Diffraction
  • When waves pass through an opening or by an edge
    the bend around the edge or expand as they pass
    through the opening.

3. Refraction

    to another

76
Refraction
  • Air to water is an example
  • Ex. Spoon seeming to bend when placed in water

77

79
4. Interference
  • The combination of two or more waves that exist
    in the same place at the same time.
  • Once waves pass, they return to original shape

80
Interference
  • Two types
  • Constructive
  • destructive

81
Constructive Interference
  • The crests of wave line up to combine their
    amplitudes making the wave larger.
  • Wave becomes bigger

82
Constructive Interference
  • The new wave is bigger than the original when
    waves combine

83
(No Transcript)
84
Destructive Interference
  • When crest of one wave meets the trough of
    another wave
  • Forms a smaller wave than the original
