Grade 10 Summative Quiz

Identification:
1. It is rhythmic disturbances that carry energy without
carrying matter.
2. A type of wave that needs matter (or medium) to
transfer energy.
3. A type of wave that DO NOT NEED matter (or
medium) to transfer energy
4. A type of mechanical wave that causes the matter in
the medium to move up and down or back and forth at
right angles to the direction the wave travels.
5. A type mechanical wave in which matter in the
medium moves forward and backward along the same
direction that the wave travels.
 6. It is a part of mechanical wave wherein it is the
highest point on a wave.
7. It is a part of mechanical wave which is the lowest
point of the wave.
8. It is a part of mechanical wave which is the
horizontal distance, either between the crests or
troughs of two consecutive waves.
9. It is a part of compressional wave where the
particles are crowded together.
10. It is the part of the compressional wave where the
particles are spread apart.

True or False: Write only T or F.

1. Rhythmic disturbances that carry energy without
carrying matter.
2. Mechanical waves is a type of wave that need
matter (medium) to transfer energy.
3. Trough is found on the lower portion of transverse
wave.
4. The wavelength is the horizontal distance, either
between the altitude or troughs of two consecutive
waves.
5. Frequency has the unit of f.
Solving: Calculate for the frequency and wavespeed.
