  • Wavelength; this is the distance from the crest of one wave to the crest of the next.
  • Frequency; this is the number of waves that pass a point in each second.
  • Amplitude; this is the measure of the amount of energy in a sound wave.

What are the three features of waves that are used to measure them?

The three features of waves includes the wavelength, amplitude, and frequency.


What are three ways that sound waves interact?

The three ways that sound waves interact are: reflection, diffraction, refraction.


What are the three features of waves?

A sound wave is a vibration of air that travels at approximately 767mph. The higher up these vibrations go (amplitude), the louder the sound is. The closer together these vibrations are (frequency), the higher pitch the sound will be.


In terms of source what is the difference and similarities of sound waves and water waves?

Sound waves and water waves are similar in that they are both caused by vibrations and carry energy. They are different in that a sound waves are three dimensional, while water waves are just two dimensional.


What do water waves light waves sound waves transfer?

Energy is transferred by all these three types of waves. The media for these three are water, space and air respectively.


What are some sound waves are used to develop a map of the features of the seafloor.?

Sonar (Sound Navigation and Ranging) waves are commonly used to develop maps of the seafloor. These waves are emitted from a source and bounce off the seafloor features, providing information on depth, shape, and composition. By analyzing the sound waves that are reflected back, scientists can create detailed maps of underwater landscapes.


How do sound waves travel trough matter?

Sound waves travel through the three states of matter (gas, liquid and solid) by vibrations.


What are 3 things are needed to make sound?

To make sound, three things are needed: a source of vibration, a medium through which the sound waves can travel, and a receiver to detect and interpret the sound waves.


What three ways can differ electromagnetic waves from sound waves?

Electromagnetic waves are transverse in nature where as sound waves are longitudinal. Electromagnetic waves can pass even through vacuum but sound waves are mechanical waves that means it needs badly a material medium Sound waves can be sensed by ear where as electromagnetic waves are sensed by eyes.


What sound waves do?
