Which medium would a light wave not be able to pass through?
A light wave would not be able to pass through a opaque medium, such as a solid wall or a thick sheet of metal, that does not allow any light to pass through.
What do you call any disturbance that lets energy pass through matter or empty space?
A wave
What three things can happen when a wave hits a boundary?
Part of the energy carried by the sound bounces back from the wall, and is perceived as an echo if you're far enough from the wall. The rest of the energy enters the wall. Part of that is absorbed by the material of the wall, and the rest emerges from the other side, where it may be noticeable to people on that side of the wall, especially in a cheap motel.
What happens to wave particles when the wave begins to travel?
Wave particles do not travel with the wave; instead, they oscillate in place as the wave passes through them. The wave transfers energy and momentum through the medium by causing the particles to oscillate and pass on the disturbance to neighboring particles.
What happens to the amplitude of a sound wave when it hits a wall?
When a sound wave hits a wall, the amplitude of the wave decreases due to reflection. Some of the sound energy is absorbed by the wall, some is transmitted through it, and some is reflected back into the original space. This results in a decrease in the overall energy and amplitude of the sound wave.
Which medium would a light wave not be able to pass through?
A light wave would not be able to pass through a opaque medium, such as a solid wall or a thick sheet of metal, that does not allow any light to pass through.
What does it mean when sound waves are reflected of canyon walls?
It means that the sound wave goes toward the canyon wall, and then a wave carrying part of the energy comes back from the canyon wall. The remaining energy will be absorbed or will pass through.
What is the word describing the material through which a wave passes?
A wave can only pass through a medium
Which sesmic wave can pass through the earth's mantle and core?
the sesimic wave is the primary wave
What wave does not pass through liquid outer core?
Transverse waves do not pass through the liquid outer core of the Earth. These waves vibrate perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation, making it unable to pass through the liquid outer core due to its fluid nature.
Which kind of seismic wave cannot pass through water?
The S-wave.
Bouncing of a wave from a surface through which it cannot pass?
reflection
What is the name for any substance through which a wave can pass?
a medium.
What is a transverse wave associated with an earthquake and which cannot move through liquid?
The Secondary or S-wave is a transverse wave associated with earthquakes that can not pass through liquids.
What do you call any disturbance that lets energy pass through matter or empty space?
A wave
Where do the sound wave pass through?
It paseses through this thing called air. Sound wave can only travel in air and in current wires
Can ultrasonic wave pass through the 5mm thickness of iron?
Yes.
