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

kinetic

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

rarefaction

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

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

The primary colors of visible light are red blue and what

green

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

reflected

In a collision a vehicle that rebounds off the object it trikes experiences less force than if it crumples assuming the time is the same in both situations

false

The waves in the electromagnetic spectrum are gamma waves.

highest

At the point of a converging lens the object cannot be seen.

focal
