Use the paragraph below to answer questions 1-3.

An experiment was designed to test the effects of nicotine on the heartbeat of mice. Both populations received water with the same mineral content, were supplied with identical amounts of the same type of food, had their temperatures maintained at 39 degrees Celsius, and received the same amount of light. Every twelve hours, mice from both populations were selected and their heartbeats monitored. The mice of Population One had 1.0 milligram of nicotine administered 10 minutes before their heartbeats were checked. The mice of population two were given nothing.

• Use the paragraph below to answer questions 4-8.• Cliff’s parents told him not to drink soda pop because it

could dissolve a nail. He did not believe them, so he decided to test his 3 favorite kinds of soda. He bought 12 nails and recorded the mass of each nail carefully using a balance. He placed 3 nails in a glass with 200ml of Soda A, 3 nails in a glass of 200ml of Soda B, and 3 nails in a glass of 200ml of Soda C. He placed the last 3 nails in a glass of water to compare it to the sodas. After 48 hours, Cliff took out all the nails and measured their final weights.

Waves

• Waves transfer energy without transferring matter.

• Waves are produced by an object demonstrating periodic (simple harmonic) motion.

Page 134: Physical Science Assessment Questions State Benchmark 1: Science As Inquiry

Waves•Three Types:

Longitudinal Transverse

Surface

Page 135: Physical Science Assessment Questions State Benchmark 1: Science As Inquiry

1st Type: Transverse Waves• Particle displacement is perpendicular

to the direction of wave propagation.

http://www.kettering.edu/~drussell/Demos/waves/wavemotion.html

Q? Which way are the particles moving?

Q? Which way is the wave moving?

Note: The particles of the medium just move up and down – NOT carried along

Page 136: Physical Science Assessment Questions State Benchmark 1: Science As Inquiry

Transverse Waves

Page 137: Physical Science Assessment Questions State Benchmark 1: Science As Inquiry

Electromagnetic wave

• is a wave which is capable of transmitting its energy through a vacuum

• (i.e., light waves and radio waves)

Page 138: Physical Science Assessment Questions State Benchmark 1: Science As Inquiry

2nd Type: Longitudinal Waves• Particle displacement is parallel to the

direction of wave propagation

Sound waves

• Source = vibrating object (e.g., tuning forks, vocal folds)

• Medium = air (or water, gas etc)

Page 140: Physical Science Assessment Questions State Benchmark 1: Science As Inquiry

Longitudinal vs. Transverse Waves

Measure from like region to like region to determine the wavelength

• The velocity of a wave depends only on the medium that it is traveling through.

• The velocity of a wave does not depend on amplitude, frequency, or wavelength.– Examples:Water waves depend on

depth of water, sound waves depend on temperature of the air
