Waves Foldable Directions- Chapter 11



Waves Foldable Directions- Chapter 15

1. Fold four(4) sheets of paper into a foldable with flaps- hamburger style.

2. Number the flaps 1-8 on the left.

3. Label the flaps as follows:

1. WAVES (this is the top flap)- write your name as well

2. Types of waves

Inside flap:

Define : wave, medium, and mechanical wave

Answer questions:

• How does an ocean wave transfer energy across the ocean?

• How are all mechanical waves similar?

3. Transverse waves

Inside flap:

Define a transverse wave

Draw a transverse wave and label the parts: crest, trough, amplitude and wavelength, direction of disturbance and direction of wave.

Give two examples of a transverse wave.

4. Longitudinal Wave

Inside flap:

Define a longitudinal wave

Draw a longitudinal wave and label the parts:

Compression, direction of disturbance, direction of wave

Give two examples of a longitudinal wave

5. Wave Properties

Inside flap:

Define crest, trough, amplitude, wavelength, frequency

Answer questions:

• What are the properties of a wave that can be measured?

• How is amplitude related to energy?

• How are longitudinal waves measured?

Draw the example wave graph on pg. 499

6. Wave Speed

Inside flap:

Define wave speed,

Write the formula for calculating the speed of a wave.

DO the practice problems on page501 number 1 and 2 as well as the review questions 1-5

7. Wave Interactions

Inside flap:

Define reflection, refraction and diffraction and illustrate an example for each one.

Define interference, constructive interference and destructive interference and illustrate each one.

8. KEY CONCEPTS

Inside flap:

Write the questions and answers to the Chapter review on pg 511-512 numbers 11-34

MAJOR GRADE: Each Flap is worth 10 points= 80

Key Concepts is worth 10 extra points

Neatness- 10 points

Total=100 points
