Bill Nye - Waves
What are the three things that travel in waves?
Because it travels in different waving frequencies
Do X-rays have higher or lower frequency than light waves?
The waves have a higher frequency.
Define wavelength:
The length between the top and bottom.
What causes waves on the ocean?
The Wind.
What are the waves in the Earth called (earthquake waves) ?
There called seismic waves.
Define Frequency:
The Speed of Waves.
Define Amplitude:
The Height of Waves.
What kind of wave travels by squeezing and spreading?
Compression Waves.
What is it called when a wave bounces back and comes back to the source?
Its called Reflection.
What is Sonar?
Sonar uses sound waves to figure out the distance of things.
