A slinky is stretched across a classroom to 9 meters. A compression travels along the slinky at a velocity of 2

m

s

. How long does it take to travel the entire 9m length of the classroom?

What measures speed and direction an object travels?

Velocity measures both speed and direction that an object travels. The magnitude of velocity represents the speed of the object, while the direction of velocity indicates the direction in which the object is moving.

What do we call a speed at which a wave travels?

The speed at which a wave travels is called its velocity. This velocity is typically determined by the frequency and wavelength of the wave.

Does light travel in compression waves?

No, light travels in electromagnetic waves, not compression waves. Compression waves are associated with sound waves, where particles are compressed and expanded as the wave passes through a medium. In contrast, electromagnetic waves do not require a medium to travel and propagate through oscillating electric and magnetic fields.


Does Light Travel More slowly in a Medium?

Light travels at its maximum velocity c in a vacuum. In a medium with a certain refractive index, it is slowed down and travels with velocity c/index


What type of energy travels in a compression wave?

Sound energy travels in a compression wave, where particles are pushed together to create areas of high pressure and rarefaction as they move through a medium.
