100%
maximum displacement from the equilibrium position amplitude
89%
a disturbance that transfers energy from one place to another, without transferring matter wave
78%
give an example of a longitudinal wave sound/seismic-p
67%
give an example of a transverse wave electromagnetic/seismic-s/water
44%
A wave where the oscillations are parallel to the direction of energy transfer longitudinal wave
44%
A wave where the oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of energy transfer transverse wave
44%
What is the phase difference of all points between two adjacent nodes on a stationary wave 0
22%
What is an antinode on a stationary wave a point of maximum displacement
22%
What is a node on a stationary wave a point of zero displacement
22%
what is produced from the superposition of two progressive waves travelling towards each other a stationary wave
22%
Which way does light bend when it travels from a more optically dense medium to a less optically dense medium away from the normal
22%
which lens focusses light on the focal point converging
22%
which lens causes light rays to disperse or 'diverge,' making them appear as if they originated from a focal point in front of the lens diverging
22%
the lowest frequency for a standing wave to be observed first harmonic
22%
What happens to the intensity of a wave as it travels it decreases
22%
why^ it spreads out
22%
wave that results in the net transfer of energy from one point to another progressive wave
22%
the phenomenon where light changes direction as it passes the boundary between different substances refraction
22%
same frequency
22%
Two waves are coherent if they have same wavelength
22%
Which way does light bend when it travels from a less optically dense medium to a more optically dense medium towards the normal
22%
fixed phase difference
11%
why can't sound be polarised it is a longitudinal wave
11%
it may be absorbed or scattered
11%
what is the wavelength of a wave length of one oscillation
11%
What happens when unpolarised light is passed through two polarising filters at 90° to each other no light can pass through
11%
How does a stationary wave differ from a progressive wave in terms of energy transfer no net energy transfer in a stationary wave
11%
What is the difference between unpolarised and polarised light unpolarised has many planes of oscillation
11%
how can light be polarised Unpolarised light is passed through a polarising filter
11%
