Activity
The Wave Exercise
This activity is designed to create a physical, kinesthetic lesson for wave theory.
In it, the students themselves model the wave.

D. Explain

Key Concepts

A wave is a disturbance that carries energy from place to place.

Electromagnetic waves (or EM waves). Some waves do not need

matter (called a medium) to be able to move (for example,
through space).

Mechanical waves Some waves MUST have a medium in order to

move

Parts of longitudinal waves:

o Compression: where the particles are close together
o Rarefaction: where the particles are spread apart

Parts of the Transverse Wave

o Crest: the highest point of the wave
o Trough: the lowest point of the wave

Waves can be typified according to the direction of motion of the

vibrating particles with respect to the direction in which the waves
travel
a. Waves in rope are called transverse waves because the individual
segments vibrate perpendicular to the direction in which the
waves travels.
b. Longitudinal waves are produced when each portion of a coil
spring is alternatively compressed and extended.
c. Waves on the surface of a body of water are a combination of
transverse and longitudinal
waves. Each moves in a circular pattern as the waves pass by.
Wave Properties
o Wavelength: The distance between one point on a wave and
the exact same place on the next wave.

Frequency: How many waves go past a point in one second;

unit of measurement is hertz (Hz).
The higher the frequency, the more energy in the wave.
10 waves going past in 1 second = 10 Hz
1,000 waves go past in 1 second = 1,000 Hz
1 million waves going past = 1 million Hz

Amplitude: How far the medium moves from rest position

(where it is when not moving).
Remember that for transverse waves, the highest point is the
crest, and the lowest point is the trough.

Wave speed: Depends on the medium in which the wave is

traveling. It varies in solids, liquids and gases.
A mathematical way to calculate speed:
wave speed = wavelength x frequency
(m)
(Hz)
OR
v=f x
Problem: If a wave has a wavelength of 2 m and a frequency

of 500 Hz, what is its speed?

Answer: speed = 2 m x 500 Hz = 1000 m/s

Introduction:
Energy from the sun reaches the earth through electromagnetic
waves. As opposed to mechanical waves, the electromagnetic waves
require no material/medium for their passage. Thus, they can pass thru
empty space.
Locate the electromagnetic spectrum chart in your classroom. A
smaller image of the chart is shown below. Identify the common name of
each wave shown in the chart.

Procedure:
1. Color and label the chart below, then match the items in the picture to
the Electromagnetic Spectrum.
2. Use the descriptions below to help locate examples of electromagnetic
waves in the Wavestown picture.
D. Explain

By looking at the diagram, the following questions will help guide the
discussion;
1. Identify the common of each wave shown in the chart.
2. Examine the electromagnetic spectrum

Key Concepts
The electromagnetic spectrum shows the various types of electromagnetic
waves, the range of their frequencies and wavelength. The wave speed of
all electromagnetic waves is the same and equal to the speed of light which
is approximately equal to 300,000,000 m/s.
o

Radio waves have the longest wavelength in the electromagnetic

spectrum. These waves carry the news, ball games, and music you
listen to on the radio. They also carry signals to television sets and

cellular phones.
Microwaves have shorter wavelengths than radio waves, which heat
the food we eat. They are also used for radar images, like the
Doppler radar used in weather forecasts.
There are infrared waves with long wavelengths and short
wavelengths. Infrared waves with long wavelengths are different
from infrared waves with short wavelengths. Infrared waves with
long wavelengths can be detected as heat. Your radiator or heater
gives off these long infrared waves. We call these thermal infrared or
far infrared waves. The sun gives off infrared waves with shorter
wavelengths. Plants reflect these waves, also known as near infrared
waves.
Visible light waves are the only only electromagnetic waves we can
see. We see these waves as the colors of the rainbow. Each color has
a different wavelength. Red has the longest wavelength and violet
has the shortest wavelength. These waves combine to make white
light.
Ultraviolet waves have wavelengths shorter than visible light waves.
These waves are invisible to the human eye, but some insects can
see them. Of the sun's light, the ultraviolet waves are responsible
for causing our sunburns.
X-Rays: As wavelengths get smaller, the waves have more energy. XRays have smaller wavelengths and therefore more energy than the
ultraviolet waves. X-Rays are so powerful that they pass easily
through the skin allowing doctors to look at our bones.
Gamma Rays have the smallest wavelength and the most energy of
the waves in the electromagnetic spectrum. These waves are
generated by radioactive atoms and in nuclear explosions. Gamma
rays can kill living cells, but doctors can use gamma rays to kill
deceased cells.

E. Elaborate
The sun is an important source of ultraviolet waves, which is the main cause of
sunburn. Sunscreen lotions are transparent to visible light but absorb most UV
light. The higher a sunscreens protection factor (SPF) the greater the percentage
of UV light absorbed. Why are UV rays harmful to the skin compared to visible
light?
