    This document discusses waves and energy transfer through waves. It begins by defining mechanical and electromagnetic waves. Mechanical waves require a medium and transfer energy through particle vibration, while electromagnetic waves can transfer energy through empty space. Examples are given of transverse waves, like a slinky spring demonstration, and longitudinal waves, like a push down a line of students. The document then discusses how waves transfer energy through particle vibration and disturbance motion without moving the particles long distances. Examples of energy transfer from seismic, ocean, sound and light waves to objects are provided. Higher amplitude and frequency waves transfer more energy.

    Waves & Energy

    Part 2
    Learning Targets and Success Criteria

    Learning Target 1: Waves carry energy and exist in more than


    one form.
    Success Criteria:
    a) Describe and identify the parts of a wave
    b) Give examples of and describe the similarities and differences
    between transverse waves and longitudinal waves
    c) Describe how energy is transferred within a wave
    d) Provide examples of energy transfers from a wave to another
    object or substance
    e) Classify waves based on whether or not they require a medium
    to be transmitted
    Mechanical & Electromagnetic Waves
    Mechanical vs. Electromagnetic waves

    It is important to understand that waves transfer energy.


    There are two types of waves:
    1. Mechanical waves are waves that travel through matter. The
    particles of matter vibrate by pushing together and moving apart,
    or by moving up and down as the waves travel through them to
    transfer the energy through the medium. They require particles
    to vibrate. Sound waves cannot be transferred or transmitted
    through space. Why?

    Ex. Sound waves, water waves, seismic waves, waves that travel
    down a rope.
    Mechanical vs. Electromagnetic waves

    2. Electromagnetic waves involve electric and magnetic fields.


    They are waves that can travel through empty space where
    matter is NOT present. Electromagnetic waves transfer energy
    through space instead of transferring energy from particle to
    particle as is done by mechanical waves.

    Ex. radio waves, microwaves, infrared rays, visible light,


    ultraviolet rays, x-rays, and gamma rays
    Transverse & Longitudinal Waves
    Transverse Waves - Spring

    Your teacher is going to use a spring to demonstrate


    how a transverse wave moves. Please describe and
    draw what you see.
    Also, consider the following questions:
    The energy put into the spring moves in which direction?
    Does any of the energy travel back?
    How is the energy transferred down the spring?
    Describe the motion of the coil with the tape on it as the
    pulse traveled through it.
    Transverse Waves Class Demo

    The entire class will form a transverse pulse. Stand shoulder


    to shoulder in a straight line. Create a stadium wave. When
    the pulse travels through you, which way did you move?

    A wave is a series of pulses occurring at regular time intervals.


    Have the person on the right end start a new pulse every three
    seconds. Describe and draw the motion of this wave.

    Complete the rest of the table on transverse waves.


    Longitudinal Waves - Spring

    Your teacher is now going to use a spring to


    demonstrate how a longitudinal wave moves. Please
    describe and draw what you see.
    Also, consider the following questions:
    The energy put into the spring moves in which direction?
    Does any of the energy travel back?
    How is the energy transferred down the spring?
    Describe the motion of the coil with the tape on it as the
    pulse traveled through it.
    Longitudinal Waves Class Demo

    The entire class will form a longitudinal wave. Line up in a


    single file. Place your hands on the shoulders of the person in
    front of you. The person at the back of the line will send some
    energy to the person at the front of the line by nudging the
    person in front of them. When the pulse travels through you,
    which way do you move?
    A wave is a series of pulses occurring at regular time intervals.
    Have the person in the back start a new pulse every two
    seconds. Describe and draw the motion of this wave.
    Complete the rest of the table on longitudinal waves.

    will return later to complete the examples.
    Energy
    How is energy transferred within a
    wave?
    Energy is transferred when particles vibrate and run into each
    other. Wavescantransfer energyover distance without
    moving matter the entire distance. For example, an ocean
    wave can travel many kilometers without the water itself
    moving many kilometers. The water moves up and downa
    motion known as a disturbance. It is the disturbance that
    travels in a wave,transferring energy.

    How do waves transfer energy to other
    objects?
    We will take a look at four examples:
    1. Seismic waves
    2. Ocean Waves
    3. Sound waves
    4. Light waves

    type of wave:
