Application:
Objective: State the purpose of waves
Objective: Define transverse and longitudinal waves & Describe the oscillation of both types of waves
Objective: Suggest where you can observe transverse and longitudinal waves
Task: Construct a paragraph stating what a wave is/does. You must include the word energy.
Scaffold: Write a definition for transverse and longitudinal waves.
Task: Define both transverse and longitudinal waves. Label the diagram.
Scaffold: Draw and label a transverse and longitudinal wave and state key differences.
Transverse; peak, trough, wavelength, amplitude
Longitudinal; compression, rarefaction, wavelength
Task: Look at the photograph of the DJ booth. Describe all of the places where you can see waves and the type of wave.
Scaffold: Give examples of transverse and longitudinal waves and link each use to its properties.
Challenge: Explain why we can see light in space but we are unable to hear sound.
Scaffold: Transverse and longitudinal waves are two types of waves that are used when energy is transferred.
Compare the similarities and differences between the two. [6 Marks]

Scaffold: Write a definition for transverse and longitudinal waves.
A wave where the movement is perpendicular to the direction the wave travels.
A wave where the movement is parallel to the direction the wave travels.
