Prior Knowledge Questions
(Do these BEFORE using the Gizmo.)
1.
A buoy is anchored to the ocean floor. A large wave approaches the buoy. How
will the buoy move as the wave goes by?
Up and down (bob)
2.
The two images show side views of ocean waves. How are the two sets of waves different?
One has a higher crest and one has a longer
wavelength.
Gizmo Warm-up
Ocean swells are an example of
waves
. In the
Waves
Gizmo, you will observe
wave motion on a model of a spring. The hand can move the spring up and
down or back and forth.
To begin, check that the
Type of wave
is
Transverse
,
Amplitude
is 20.0 cm,
Frequency
is 0.75 Hz,
Tension
is 3.0 N, and
Density
is 1.0 kg/m. (Note: In this Gizmo, “density” refers to the
linear mass density
, or mass
per unit length. It is measured in units of kilograms per meter.)
1.
Click

(
). How would you describe the motion of a
transverse wave
? Click
Pause
(
). Notice the
crests
(high points) and
troughs
(low points) of the wave.
It goes up and down but there is one full crest and one full trough the other crest is only
about half.
2.
Click
Reset
(
). Choose the
Longitudinal
wave and increase the
Amplitude
to 20.0 cm. Click
Play
.
How would you describe the motion of a
longitudinal wave
? Click
Pause
. Notice the
compressions
in the
wave where the coils of the spring model are close together and the
rarefactions
where the coils are
spread apart.

This wave is moving side to side and the compressions are in the middle while the
rarefaction are in the sides.
Activity A:
Measuring waves
Get the Gizmo ready:
●
Click
Reset
. Select
Transverse
waves.
●
Set
Amplitude
to 20.0 cm,
Frequency
to 1.0 Hz,
Tension
to 2.0 N, and
Density
to 2.0 kg/m.
Question: How do we measure and describe waves?
1.
Observe: Click
Play
. Observe the motions of the hand and of the green dot in the middle.
A.
What is the motion of the hand?
Up and down
B.
Turn off the
Lights on the checkbox
and
observe the green dot. What is the motion of
the green dot?
It goes to the top of the crest to the
bottom of the trough.
C. Follow the motion of a single crest of the
wave. How does the crest move?
It moves through the wave and comes
back to the beginning once it reaches
the end.
In a
transverse wave
, the motion of the
medium
(what the wave moves through—in this case, the spring)
is perpendicular to the direction of the wave. So, each point of the spring moves up and down as the wave
travels from left to right.
2.
Measure: With the lights on, click
Pause
. Turn on
Show rulers
.
A.
Use the horizontal ruler to measure the horizontal distance
between two crests. What is this distance?
From the beginning
crest to the middle
crest is 160 cm.
This is the
wavelength
of the wave.
B.
What is the distance between the two troughs?
The wavelength is
about 180 cm.
The wavelength can be found by measuring the distance between two successive crests, two
successive troughs, or any two equivalent points on the wave.
C. Click
Reset
. Set the
Density
to 1.0 kg/m. Click
Play
, and then
Pause
. What is the wavelength of this wave?
140 cm
3.
Measure: Click
Reset
. The
amplitude
of a transverse wave is the maximum distance a point on the wave
is displaced, or moved, from its resting position. Turn off the lights. Click
Play
, and then click
Pause
. Use
the vertical ruler to measure the height of the green trace, showing how far the green dot moved up and
down.

A. What is the height of the green trace?
The height is
around 98
cm.
B. The wave’s amplitude is equal to half of this height. What is the
amplitude?
49 cm
4.
Observe: Click
Reset
. Select
Lights on
and turn off
Show rulers
. Select
Longitudinal
waves. Check that
the
Amplitude
is 10.0 cm, the
Frequency
is 1.00 Hz, and the
Tension
is 2.0 N. Set the
Density
to 1.0
kg/m, and click
Play
.
A.
What is the motion of the hand?
The hand goes side to side and pulls
and pushes kind of. The dot moves with
the spring and also goes side to side.
B.
Turn the lights off. What is the motion of the
green dot?
The dot stays with one spring and bobs
from side to side.
C. Follow the motion of a single compression of
the wave. How does the compression
move?
It moves through the wave and a single
spring compresses and then lets go but
the springs next to it do the same and
the compression moves through the
wave.
In a
longitudinal wave
, the motion of the medium is parallel to the direction of the wave. So, each
point of the spring moves back and forth as the wave is transmitted from left to right.
5.
Measure: With the lights on, click
Pause
. Turn on
Show rulers
.
A.
The wavelength of a longitudinal wave is equal to the distance between
two successive compressions (or rarefactions). What is this distance?
The distance
is 160 cm.
B.
How does this compare to the wavelength of the comparable transverse
wave? (See your answer to question 2C.)
It is very
similar and
20 cm’s off.
6.
Measure: Click
Reset
. The amplitude of a longitudinal wave is equal to the distance a point on the wave is
displaced from its resting position. Turn off the lights. Click
Play
, and then click
Pause
. Use the horizontal
ruler to measure the width of the green trace.
A. What is the width of the green trace?
20 cm
B. The wave’s amplitude is equal to half of this height. What is the
amplitude?
