Learning Objectives
1. Be able to describe a wave in
terms of wavelength, frequency
and amplitude.
2. Be able to use the wave equation
in calculations:
V=f
Some definitions…
1) Amplitude – this is
“how high” the wave is:
2) Wavelength () – this is the
distance between two identicle
points on the wave and is
measured in metres:
3) Frequency – this is how many waves pass by
every second and is measured in Hertz (Hz)
• Wavelength is the distance from one peak to the
next
• It is also the distance between one point on a
wave to the next identical point on the next
wave.
• Frequency is the number of waves produced
each second.
• It is also the number of waves that pass a point
each second.
• Amplitude is the maximum displacement of a
wave from its mean (middle ) position. For sound
waves this represents the volume.

1) Amplitude – this is
“how high” the wave
is:
2) Wavelength () – this is the
distance between two
corresponding points on the
wave and is measured in metres:
3) Frequency – this is how many waves pass by
every second and is measured in Hertz (Hz)
4) Speed – this is how fast the wave travels and is
measured in metres per second (m/s)
The Wave Equation
The wave equation relates the speed of the
wave to its frequency and wavelength:
Wave speed (v) = frequency (f) x wavelength ()
in m/s
=V
in Hz
and
in m
=V
Distance, Speed
and Time for waves
Speed = distance (in metres)
time (in seconds)
1) A water wave travels 200 metres in 40 seconds. What is its speed?
2) Another wave covers 2km in 1,000 seconds. What is its speed?
3) Sound travels at around 330m/s. How long does it take to travel one
mile (roughly 1,600m)?

The Electromagnetic Spectrum
Gamma rays have a very short wavelength and have the
highest frequency. They are very penetrating (can get deep
into an object). They are produced by radioactive substances
and are dangerous to humans unless used very carefully.
Gamma-rays can be used to sterilise food. You seal the
packet, then blast the packet with gamma rays. This will kill
any microbes inside. New microbes cannot get into the sealed
pack. Once the burst of radiation is turned off, the radiation
is immediately gone, this ensures food stays fresher for
longer. Gamma rays can be used to check that two pieces of
metal have been welded together properly (notice the cracks
near the joint, bottom right)
Gamma radiation can also be used to sterilise medical
equipment after operations so that it can be used again. (It
kills microbes but doesn’t get hot, so won’t damage plastic
objects)
A carefully controlled beam of gamma rays is used to kill
cancer cells. This is radiotherapy. In the TV programme ‘The
incredible hulk’, exposure to gamma rays was the reason that
Dr Bruce Banner turned into the angry monster called the
hulk.
X-rays are very like gamma rays, but are produced by an Xray tube. They are the second highest frequency waves and
have the second shortest wavelength. Doctors and dentists
use X-rays to check bones and teeth.
As with gamma rays, X-ray photos are used by engineers to
check welds and metal joints
In factories X-rays can be used to check that food does not
have hard things like metal or stones in it.
X-rays are harmful if you get many doses or if you have a
large dose in one go because they can lead to cells becoming
cancerous.
Ultra-violet rays can also be dangerous to us. Hot objects
like the Sun produce ultra violet rays, and so do the electric
arcs used in electric welding.
Ultra violet has the 3rd highest frequency.
Large amounts of ultra violet are bad for our eyes and can
cause cataracts or skin cancer!
Ultraviolet rays can also cause suntan. The darker your skin,
the more UV it absorbs, and so less UV passes through to the
living cells underneath, meaning less damage.
Small amounts of ultra violet rays are good for us, producing
vitamin D in our skin. Vitamin D is needed for healthy strong
bones.

rickets
These ladies are

People whose
ancestors lived in
sunnier parts of the
world are more likely to

This lady is

Sweden.
The melanin in our skin absorbs UV rays, stopping it from
penetrating into the skin tissues, so it can’t damage our
cells.
UV Light
Melanin protects the
skin from UV light
Luckily for us, most of the Sun’s UV is absorbed high in the
atmosphere by the Ozone layer.
Some chemicals fluoresce (glow up) when they absorb UV rays,
and convert the energy into light rays so that your shirts look
brighter in sunlight.
Some insects can see UV light and it helps them to find
flowers

Visible light is the only part of the full spectrum that we can
see, it has the middle frequency and is not damaging.
Our eyes are more sensitive to some wavelengths than to
others. We see green and yellow colours more easily than reds
and violets.
Visible light is used for our eyes to see. It is also used for
taking photographs.
Visible Light was used in times gone by as a means of
communication; people would flash lights in Morse code to get
messages from one place to another quickly.
Visible Light is also used for safety – we have lights on cars
for driving in the dark or in foggy conditions. Light reflects of
cats-eyes on the motorway to let drivers know what lane they
are in.
Visible Light is also used in lighthouses to warn ships that they
are near underwater rocks that could damage their ship or
cause it to run aground.
Special photographs taken with infra red rays are called
thermographs. This means that people with illnesses that give
you a higher body temperature, such as swine flu, can be
detected at airports with infra red detectors. These viewers
can also be used by doctors to help detect circulation
problems (where the skin is cooler, so the thermograph is
bluer) and arthritis and cancer (where the skin is warmer)
Infra red rays are given out by
warm objects. This means that fire
fighters can use infra red viewers to
search for unconscious people in
smoke filled buildings, and to search
for survivors trapped alive by
earthquakes.
Infra red detectors are also used to find out which buildings
are not very well insulated. We know this because those
buildings will glow white and red on detectors, but well
insulated buildings have dark colours.
Astronomers take infra red photos to get data about the
temperature of planets and stars. Burglar alarms are designed
to detect the infra red rays from an intruder. Night vision
goggles also help the army to see the enemy in the dark.
Remote controls use infra red rays.
Microwaves are shorter than radio waves. They are used in
microwave ovens. Microwave ovens are able to cook food
because the frequency the wave is at is absorbed by water
molecules in the food. It vibrates the molecules, generating
heat, which is then transferred to the food.
Microwaves are reflected off metals, so microwave ovens have
metal mesh screens on the doors to stop the waves getting out
and burning you.
Microwaves are also used for communication with satellites
because they can get through the atmosphere.
Today, microwaves are also used for global positioning systems
on ‘sat nav’s’ and they are used to make mobile phone
communication possible.
Radio waves have a very long wavelength. There are many
types of radio wave.
UHF waves (ultra high frequency) are used to transmit TV
programmes to your home and to your radio (who’d have
thought).
Phone and WiFi signals also use radio waves.
VHF (very high frequency waves) are used to transmit local
radio programmes, and local police and ambulance messages.
Medium wave and long wave radio are used to transmit over
long distances. Because they have long wavelengths, they can
diffract (bend) around the curve of the Earth and around hills
that might be in the way.

Seismic Waves
Learning objective:
What are P waves and S waves
Seismic waves
Earthquakes travel as waves through the Earth – we call them
SEISMIC WAVES. There are two types:
P waves:
1) They are longitudinal so they cause the ground
to move up and down
2) They can pass through solids and liquids
3) They go faster through more dense material
S waves:
1) They are transverse so they cause the ground
to move from right to left
2) They ONLY pass through solids
3) They are slower than P waves
4)11/01/2019
They go faster through more dense material

These P waves are being
reflected at the crust
These P waves travel through
the Earth and are refracted
when they pass through a
medium
The paths of these waves are all
curved because density is
11/01/2019
gradually changing
These S waves cannot
travel through the
outer core as they only
go through solids – this
tells us that the outer
core is liquid

it takes the wave to
travel to these
locations the location
of the earthquake can
be found.
