Solid
Liquid
Gas
Vacuum
30
Multiple Select
Which of the following statements about transverse and longitudinal waves are correct?
Transverse waves have disturbances perpendicular to the direction of the wave.
Longitudinal waves have disturbances parallel to the direction of the wave.
Both transverse and longitudinal waves transfer matter.
Transverse waves are exemplified by light.

Multiple Choice
In which medium does light travel the slowest?
Solid
Liquid
Gas
Vacuum
37
Multiple Choice
Based on the diagram, match the property of light (Reflection, Absorption, Refraction) to the correct behavior of the light ray.
Reflection: Light bounces off the surface; Absorption: Light energy is taken in; Refraction: Light bends as it passes through
Reflection: Light bends as it passes through; Absorption: Light bounces off the surface; Refraction: Light energy is taken in
Reflection: Light energy is taken in; Absorption: Light bends as it passes through; Refraction: Light bounces off the surface
