Magnetism and Electricity is over.. I am going to hand the tests back- you did very well as a group!
This was perhaps the best effort from all 4 classes that I have seen this year... nice job.
As we move forward, we are looking at waves.. and what do waves transmit? Energy.. Energy has been the focus of our entire year's work.
Waves are a great lead in to the last two topics: Light and Sound... Light and Sound both are transmitted by waves (light as a particle too) so if we hit waves now, light and sound will follow nicely and be very easy to grasp.
Here are the major concepts and key words
Wave Medium Transverse Longitudinal Compression Rarefaction
Crest Trough Frequency Amplitude Wavelength Interference
Constructive Destructive Reflection Diffraction Refraction
As you can see.. there are ALOT of terms.. we will be reading and covering about one section a day in the Wave Chapter.. make sure you pay attention, keep up, and study at home.
