Sketch and label a diagram representing transverse and longitudinal waves. 464566018859500The two different types of waves.-1238252400290Key IdeasThe two different type of waves are transverse and longitudinal. Transverse waves: The oscillation of the wave is perpendicular (at a right angle) to the direction of energy transfer. Longitudinal waves: The oscillation of the wave is parallel to the direction of energy transfer. All waves transfer energy and information. It is important to know how to label and define the amplitude and the wavelength. Wavefronts are created by overlapping lots of different waves. It is a line where all the vibrations happen at the same time and are the same distance from the source (e.g. a water wave)2115879-3934050057010302254253895725-161925Health and Safety Check!Slinkys are fragile – I willbe sensible with them to avoid tangles. 00Health and Safety Check!Slinkys are fragile – I willbe sensible with them to avoid tangles. 5630545-624840B1: Demonstrating WavesIn this investigation you are going to use a slinky todemonstrate the two different types of waves. 456247521082000The method is written in the questions and will be underlined so it is vital that you work methodically through these.B1: Method and questionsCan you create a transverse wave with the slinky?How did you do this?……………………………………………………………………………………………………….……………………………………………………………………………………………………….Try to increase the wavelength of your transverse wave.
