SAMPLE - 3rd Quarter 2nd Summative Test SOUND WAVES

This 3 sentence summary provides the key information about the science test: The test covers topics about sound including multiple choice questions about how humans benefit from sound, the material in which sound travels fastest, and characteristics and capabilities of sound transmission. Students are asked to identify terms related to sound waves, determine whether waves are mechanical or electromagnetic, identify true/false statements about sound, and enumerate categories of waves and characteristics of sound. Finally, students are asked to identify parts of transverse and longitudinal waves.
