Student Exploration: Longitudinal Waves Prior Knowledge Questions ​(Do these BEFORE using the Gizmo.) In many science fiction movies, an evil alien spaceship explodes with an enormous KABOOM!! Suppose you were floating in space at a safe distance from a large explosion such as the supernova at left. Do you think you would you hear anything? Explain. I don’t think so, I think the sound doesn’t have anything to vibrate to make the noise in space. Gizmo Warm-up No sounds can be heard in outer...

What is the best description of sound waves? A. A source vibrates up and down, causing air molecules to move up and down perpendicular to the direction the wave is transmitted. B. A source vibrates back and forth, causing air molecules to move back and forth in the same direction that the wave is transmitted. C. A source vibrates up and down and back and forth, causing air molecules to move in a circular motion as the wave is transmitted. D. A source ejects a ring of high-velocity air mo...
