The type of energy transferred by a wave in a medium is energy

kinetic

When sound waves interfere to create standing waves the points on the medium that move up and down with the largest amplitudes are called nodes

False

The fundamental mode of vibration of a wave is defined as that which has the lowest

frequency

lowest

Newton discovered that the colors formed by a prism can be recombined to create light

white

On the decibel scale an increase of decibels means an intensity increase ten times

ten

When a wave moves from a dense medium to a less dense medium most of the wave energy is

refracted

Sound waves are longitudinal mechanical compression waves

A. True

The pitch of a sound is determined by its and speed together or its frequency alone

The pitch of a sound can be determined by its frequency alone.

For a stationary observer when the source of a sound is moving its pitch appears to change

true

Are you able to see an object when it emits or reflects one or more visible light frequencies

Yes.

The amount of diffraction that occurs when a sound wave encounters a barrier depends on the waves

wavelength

All electromagnetic radiation are

Transverse waves

A waves period and its frequency have a what relationship

reciprocal

When a waves moves from a less dense medium to a denser one most of the wave energy is refracted

reflected

Unlike mechanical waves waves do not require a medium to travel through.

Electromagnetic

What All of the visible color light waves together result in light
