WGU C165 Module 6 & 7 Properties of Waves
& Structure of matters training Exam
Questions and all Questions Accurately
Answered Latest 2024/2025


electromagnetic waves - correct answer Waves with both an electric and magnetic
component. Can only be transverse waves and can travel through a vaccuum


compression - correct answer Region of longitudinal wave where particles are close
together


expansion - correct answer Region of longitudinal wave where particles are far apart
(aka rarefaction)


crest - correct answer The highest point in a wave above equilibrium


trough - correct answer The lowest point in a wave under equilibrium


amplitude - correct answer The distance between a wave's equilibrium and
crest/trough in a transverse wave, or how compressed/expanded the medium becomes
in a longitudinal wave


wavelength - correct answer The horizontal distance after which the wave repeats


period - correct answer The amount of time needed for one full oscillation/one wave to
pass


frequency - correct answer Number of wave oscillations in a given period of time

, sound wave - correct answer A disturbance we can hear that moves through a medium
away from the source


radio wave - correct answer have the longest wavelengths of all EM radiation.


Microwaves - correct answer have wavelengths that are shorter than those of radio
waves.


Infrared (IR) - correct answer has wavelengths that are longer than those of visible
light, but shorter than those of microwaves.


Ultraviolet (UV) - correct answer has wavelengths that are just shorter than those of
visible violet light, but longer than those of X-rays.


X-rays - correct answer have wavelengths that are shorter than UV rays but longer
than gamma rays. X-rays therefore have higher frequencies and higher energies than
ultraviolet radiation.


Gamma rays - correct answer are produced in nuclear reactions and explosions of
giant stars.


compression - correct answer Region of longitudinal wave where particles are close
together


expansion - correct answer Region of longitudinal wave where particles are far apart
(aka rarefaction)


Pitch - correct answer refers to how high or low a sound is.


loudness - correct answer energy from a sound wave. more energy will produce louder
sound.
