Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 8.67 Wave Properties Amplitude, Wavelength and Frequency skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Which claim is best supported by wave models?

AMechanical waves and electromagnetic waves both require matter to travel

BMechanical waves require a medium, while electromagnetic waves do not, and wave properties can be used to compare energy patterns

CIncreasing amplitude and increasing frequency always describe the same change

DWaves carry matter from one place to another without transferring energy

Solution & Explanation:Wave models show that mechanical waves need a medium, electromagnetic waves can travel in space, and properties such as amplitude and frequency help compare energy patterns.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

On the planned electromagnetic spectrum arrow, which region belongs between infrared and ultraviolet?

Aradio waves

Bmicrowaves

Cvisible light

Dgamma rays

Solution & Explanation:Visible light lies between infrared and ultraviolet on the electromagnetic spectrum.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

A student writes, "If both amplitude and wavelength increase, the wave must always carry more energy." What is the best response?

Acorrect, because wavelength alone always sets energy for every wave

Bcorrect, because all waves with longer wavelengths are more energetic

Cincorrect, because waves do not carry energy

Dincorrect, because amplitude can increase energy, but wavelength by itself does not always mean more energy

Solution & Explanation:Amplitude is directly tied to energy in many wave models, but wavelength must be interpreted with frequency and wave type rather than assumed to always increase energy.
