Term
A mass attached to a spring vibrates back and forth. At the equilibrium position, the
Definition
velocity reaches a maximum
Term
which of the following is the time it takes to complete a cycle of motion?
Definition
period
Term
how are the frequency and period related in simple harmonic motion?
Definition
they are inversely related
Term
Two waves can occupy the same space at the same time because waves
Definition
are displacements of matter
Term
Which of the following is the interference that results when individual displacements on the same side of the equilibrium position are added together to form the resultant wave?
Definition
constructive
Term
Vibration of an object about an equilibrium point is called simple harmonic motion when the restoring force is proportional to
Definition
displacement.
Term
A wave travels through a medium. As the wave passes the particles of the medium vibrate in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the wave's motion. The wave is
