 Wave
Motion
Lab
 Teacher’s
Guide
 
 Topic:
 Waves
 
 The
following
information
is
provided
to
the
student:
 
 Question:


 How
are
transverse,
longitudinal
and
circular
wave
motion
similar
and
different?
 
 Purpose:


 To
distinguish
between
the
three
types
of
wave
motion
‐
transverse,
longitudinal
and
circular.
 
 A
complete
lab
write‐up
includes
a
Title,
a
Purpose,
a
Data
section,
and
a
Conclusion/Discussion.
The
 Data
section
should
include
observations
of
the
three
types
of
wave
motion.
Diagrams
would
be
an
 excellent
way
to
distinguish
between
the
particle
motion
involved
in
each
type
of
wave.
The
 Conclusion/Discussion
should
include
a
well‐written
paragraph
which
responds
to
the
purpose
of
the
 lab.

 Description
of
Procedure:
 Students
observe
computer
animations
of
a
transverse
waves,
longitudinal
waves
and
circular
waves.

 The
analyze
the
up
and
down,
back
and
forth,
and
around
and
around
movement
of
the
individual
 particles.

They
record
their
observations
and
construct
diagrams
to
convey
information
about
each
type
 of
wave.

After
about
10‐15
minutes
of
observing
and
note‐taking,
students
then
write
a
paragraph
for
 the
Conclusion/Discussion
which
responds
to
the
question
raised
in
the
Purpose
of
the
lab.
