Question

short answer 24. sound travels away from the vibrating object 25. which one has the highest frequency? 26. which one has the lowest frequency? 27. which one has the highest volume?

Explanation:

Step1: Recall wave - property relationships

Frequency is the number of waves per unit time. Amplitude is related to volume. Higher frequency means more waves in a given time, and higher amplitude means higher volume.

Step2: Analyze frequency of wave patterns

The wave with the most number of cycles in a given horizontal length has the highest frequency. Among the wave patterns shown for questions 25 - 27, the wave with the most cycles is the one with the highest frequency.

Step3: Analyze amplitude for volume

The wave with the largest vertical displacement (amplitude) has the highest volume.

Answer:

1. The wave with the most cycles (not labeled in the question - need to visually identify the wave with most peaks and troughs in a given length).
2. The wave with the fewest cycles (not labeled in the question - need to visually identify the wave with least peaks and troughs in a given length).
3. The wave with the largest amplitude (highest peak - to - trough vertical distance, not labeled in the question - need to visually identify).
