Sound waves are what waves?
Sound waves are longitudinal waves, which transfer energy by compressing particles, which then apply pressure on the particles infront of them. The point at which the particles are compressed is known as the compression, whereas the point at which the particles are most spaced out is known as the rarefaction
When the particles of a medium move a great distance as the wave passes does the wave have a large amplitude?
True
Why are gases good insulators?
Gas particles are very far apart. So heat can't be passes, the heat escapes
When a beam of alpha particles passes between two electrically charged plates which plate is the beam deflected toward?
true
What is it called when a light bends as it passes through water what is it called?
It is known as refraction.

What is the difference between colloid and crystalloid?
The particles which passes through semi permeable membrane are called crystalloid. and the particles which doesn't pass through semi permeable membrane are called colloids.
What is the process called when water passes through soil layers drawing elements and particles with it?
Leaching is the removal of substances by percolating water.The movement of dissolved substances or particles into a horizon is called illuviation. The movement of dissolved substances or particles out of a horizon is called eluviation.
What moves in a circle as waves passes by in the ocean?
ocean particles
What is the maximum distance the particles of the medium move away from the rest positions as a wave passes through the medium?
The maximum distance the particles move away from their rest positions as a wave passes through a medium is the amplitude of the wave.
Why as the elevation increases the temperature decreases?
The world is warmed by sunlight, which passes through the (mostly) transparent atmosphere, and warms up the ground. The farther away from the ground you get, the farther you are from the warmth of the ground.
What happens to the speed of sound when it passes through a solid?
It is reflected because of the way the particles are transmited
When the particles of a medium move a great distance as the wave passes does the wave have a large amplitude?
True
When do corals eat?
I think contunuously as they filter minute food particles out of the water which constantly passes over them.
What is it called when the moon passes the sun?
it is called an eclipse
When air passes out of the lungs it is inspiration?
When air passes through your lungs it is called respiration.
A narrow path through a mountain range is called?
Pass
