Grade 8 Science: Waves Review Key Concepts

The document reviews key concepts about waves including that waves carry energy not matter, how sound is produced, classifications of wave interactions, definitions of frequency, wavelength and amplitude, how amplitude affects volume, calculating wave speed, the relationship between pitch and frequency, the four ways light is produced, how engineers use acoustic sound tiles, and labeling parts of the electromagnetic spectrum. It also includes questions about the medium waves move fastest through, identifying phases of matter from diagrams, measurements of amplitude, frequency and wave speed from a diagram, and how a musician can change pitch and volume on their instrument.

Grade 8 Science: Waves Review

Key Concepts
1. Know that waves carry energy, not matter
2. Describe how sound is produced.
3. Classify wave interactions as reflection, refraction, diffraction
4. Define frequency, wavelength, amplitude
5. Describe how amplitude affects volume
6. Calculate wave speed
7. Describe the relationship between pitch and frequency
8. Describe the 4 ways that light is produced. Bioluminescence, luminescence, fluorescence
and incandescence.
9. Describe how engineers use acoustic sound tiles.
10. Label parts of te EM spectrum.

Interpreting Visuals
1. In which medium do the sound waves move the fastest?
2. If these are 2 gasses, 1 liquid and 1 solid, which is
which?

1. What is the amplitude of this


wave?
2. What is the frequency?
3. If the distance between the
peaks is 2m, what is the wave
speed?
How can she change the pitch or volume of her instrument?
How is it making sounds?
