Revision

This helpful student revision mat provides a range of different revision activities for students to complete to check their understanding of longitudinal and transverse waves.

It includes a cloze activity to check their understanding of the GCSE physics required practical on ripple tanks, as well as matching terms with definitions, and completing relevant calculations. There are also EM radiation tasks, and students also have to annotate longitudinal wave diagrams and identify the features of transverse waves.  

An example revision task from the revision resource: 

Frequency and amplitude

Draw a wave with:

  1. a high frequency
  2. a low frequency
  3. a high amplitude
  4. a low amplitude
