Some Unit 5 Energy and Wave Help

I thought I would take some time to post the Energy notes that we took in class for anyone who was absent or those of you who have misplaced yours.



You also might want to review the basic parts of a transverse wave:
Keep in mind that the wavelength is not from the first crest to the last crest or from the first trough to the last trough, it is from a crest to the very next crest. So if a wave has more than one crest, you just would measure the distance from one crest to the next.

You should also be very familiar with one type of kinetic energy in particular: THERMAL ENERGY. Don't forget to review the guided notes that we wrote down about Thermal energy and Heat.
