Lesson 13 review section

1. Complete Warm-Up for April 9th. Work with your shoulder partner first. Then swap and compare answers with the rest of your team.

2. The team with the most correct answers are “King/Queen for the day” and the rolling chairs.

3. Get your journal ready. Add one page of guided notes to the next available page.

a. Identify the characteristics of electromagnetic and mechanical waves.

b. Describe how the behavior of light waves is manipulated causing reflection, refraction diffraction, and absorption).

c. Explain how the human eye sees objects and colors in terms of wavelengths.

d. Describe how the behavior of waves is affected by medium (such as air, water, solids).

e. Relate the properties of sound to everyday experiences.

f. Diagram the parts of the wave and explain how the parts are affected by changes in amplitude and pitch.

When a wave enters a new medium at an angle, one side of the wave changes speed before the other side, causing the wave to bend.

• amount of bending depends on the speed of light in both materials

• the greater the difference between the speeds of light in the two media, the more the light is bent

Diffraction• A wave spreading

• A wave passes a barrier or moves through a hole in a barrier…• it bends and spreads out

• ex: a harbor

DIFFRACTION

• familiar examples: sound waves (speakers in a room) and water waves (breaker opening in harbors)

• the amount of diffraction increases with increasing λ

when a wave bends around an edge or spreads through an opening

White light can be separated into the visible spectrum colors by bending the light with refraction or diffraction

red light is bent the least violet light is bent the most

• caused when light waves overlap each other

a) constructive – interact to build up wave

b) destructive – interact to reduce wave D

INTERFERENCEwhen 2 or more waves meet while traveling in the same medium (overlapping waves)

the NET displacement (amplitude) is the sum of the amplitude of the waves

Constructive or destructive interference

Creates standing waves & beats

Interference• the result of two or more sound• waves overlapping

CONSTRUCTIVE INTERFERENCE

larger displacement (larger amplitude)

crest overlaps crest

or tough overlaps trough

CONSTRUCTIVE INTERFERENCE

Resonance

When an object vibration at a particular frequency

Seen in musical instruments, especially strings

Sympathetic resonanceWhen one vibrating object induces a vibration in another object

Soldiers do not walk in formation across bridges

DESTRUCTIVE INTERFERENCEsmaller displacement (smaller amplitude)

crest cancels trough

crest overlaps trough

displacement/ amplitude is reduced

In music interference creates “beats” (changes in loudness & softness)

BEATS: INTERFERENCE

Wave 1 (red) and Wave 2 (blue)

combine to form beat pattern (in green)

High amplitude = LOUDLow amplitude = soft

Overlapping waves of different f (frequencies)

A polarizing filter acts as though it has tiny slits in one direction.

Only some of the light (vibrating in the same way as the slit) can pass through a polarized filter
