Waves, Light, and Sound
Grade 4 - Science - On Level

Signal test: a model of rope waves shows longer wavelength. What observation matches that wave model?
- crests closer together
- crests farther apart
- shorter ripples
- a louder sound
Observation model: which model explains how a student sees the object making water waves in a tray?
- light reflects from the tray and enters the eye
- sound enters the eye and becomes light
- light reaches the object but never enters the eye
- light enters the eye before reaching the object
Observation model: how could the signal "four mirror flashes" transfer information?
- the pattern is random and not agreed on
- the signal changes every time it is sent
- the receiver uses a different code for the same pattern
- the flash count can stand for a number
Light path model: which question is about the wave pattern in ripples in a pond?
- How does larger amplitude change what is observed?
- How does the material's color change the circuit?
- Which signal code sends the clearest message?
- How does reflected light reach the eye?
Wave model: which evidence would support a light-reflection model?
- sound waves enter the eye as light
- an object is seen only when light from it reaches the eye
- the object is seen equally in total darkness
- light reaches the eye without interacting with the object
Wave model: a model of rope waves shows longer wavelength. What observation matches that wave model?
- crests farther apart
- shorter ripples
- a louder sound
- taller ripples
Light path model: which model explains how a student sees the object making ripples in a pond?
- light enters the eye before reaching the object
- sound enters the eye and becomes light
- light reaches the object but never enters the eye
- light reflects from the water and enters the eye
Observation model: how could the signal "red-blue-red light flashes" transfer information?
- the receiver uses a different code for the same pattern
- the color pattern can transfer a warning
- the signal changes every time it is sent
- the pattern is random and not agreed on
