Disturbance that transfers energy from point to point

wave 100

The bottom, or lowest point of a wave

trough 200

Region in a sound wave where particles are pushed together (upward curves)

compression 300

The number of waves produced in a unit of time

frequency 400

Measure of the amount of energy in a sound wave

amplitude 500

The back and forth movement of matter where energy is transferred is called?

vibration 100

TRUE OR FALSE – Does sound travel in a vacuum?

FALSE 200

Sound that does not get absorbed is what?

300 reflected

TRUE OR FALSE – Vibrations move at different speeds in different material and have different wavelengths

TRUE 400

TRUE OR FALSE – When sound waves move through a medium, the molecules travel with the wave to transfer the energy along

FALSE 500

Sound travels fastest through what medium?

solid 100

Would sound move faster through water or the air?

water 200

Softer materials, such as carpet, do what to sound?

absorb it 300

Sound travels slowest through what medium?

gases 400

Would sound move faster through a door or a string?

door 500

With increased frequency would the pitch be high or low?

high 100

TRUE OR FALSE – The higher the amplitude the louder the sound

TRUE 200

The highness or lowness of a sound is called what?

pitch 300

TRUE OR FALSE - The lower the number of waves per unit of time the higher the pitch

FALSE 400

A decrease in amplitude would cause a louder or softer sound?

softer 500

The top, or highest point, of a wave is called what?

crest 100

Animals, such as bats, use what type of communication?

echolocation 200

The distance from the crest of one wave to the crest of another is called what?

wavelength 300
