a.) There are two main types of seismic waves: body waves and surface waves. Summarize both body and surface waves, then note their differences.
b.) There are two types of body waves: primary and secondary waves. Summarize both primary and secondary waves, then note their differences.

Q2. (~0.5 - 1.5 page)
Research the Angers Suspension Bridge in France. 
a) How long was the bridge?
b) When was the bridge built?
c) When and how did the bridge collapse? Include relevant Physics terminology.
d) How many casualties were attributed to the Angers Bridge collapse?

Q3. (~ 0.75 - 1 page)
Watch a video about the Tacoma Narrows Bridge (1940), OR the resonance on the London Thames Millennium Bridge (2000). Consider how their designs could have been improved. Write about the videos watched, the bridge chosen, physics terminology (resonance) and how the designs could have been improved. Please note: the links to the videos watched MUST be included in the sources. If you pick a video under 5 minutes in length, a second video must be chosen. Be sure to research videos that speak about the physics related to the bridge chosen.

From infrasonic communication to echolocation, animals use sound waves in incredible ways to adapt to their environments. Whether used to stay safe or thrive as a predator an animal’s hearing is critical to its survival.

In this activity, you will research four animals’ use of sound waves. After learning about four animals and how they use sound waves to survive, you will choose the animal that you believe to have the most impressive use of sound waves. Organize your research in the attached document, citing your sources.
