September 10, 2008

Hi everyone. Today in class we performed an experiment using "snakeys" also known as slinkies. We followed instructions from the green text book and answered questions on a white sheet. In the experiment we discovered that transverse and longitudinal waves have the same charachteristics. When one person pushes the slinky to the right and another person pushes the slinky to the left then you can see the waves passing through each other.

The next scribe is going to be Dion.
