STUDENT EXPLORATION; LONGITUDINAL WAVES QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Prior Knowledge Questions (Do these BEFORE using the Gizmo.) In many science fiction movies, an evil alien spaceship explodes with an enormous KABOOM!! Suppose you were floating in space at a safe distance from a large explosion such as the supernova at left. Do you think you would you hear anything? Explain. Gizmo Warm-up No sounds can be heard in outer space because sound waves require a medium, such as air, to travel...

What is the best description of sound waves? A. A source vibrates up and down, causing air molecules to move up and down perpendicular to the direction the wave is transmitted. B. A source vibrates back and forth, causing air molecules to move back and forth in the same direction that the wave is transmitted. C. A source vibrates up and down and back and forth, causing air molecules to move in a circular motion as the wave is transmitted. D. A source ejects a ring of high-velocity air mo...
