What is a blackbody radiator

A blackbody radiator, also known as a cavity radiator, is an object or system which absorbs all radiation. It then re-radiates the energy which is characteristic of the radiating system.

What is the reciprocal of frequency

The reciprocal of frequency is the time period of the wave

The pitch of a sound wave is its

frequency

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

A in a transverse wave corresponds to a compression in a longitudinal wave



CREST
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

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

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

wavelength

Consider a regular pyramid where p is the perimeter of the base s is the slant height BA is the base area and LA is the lateral area What is a valid formula for the surface area

SA=BA+LA

SA=BA+1/2ps

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