A cork is floating in still water when a wave machine is turned on. Compare and contrast the motion of the cork in high and low frequency waves.(1 point) Responses Both high and low frequency waves will cause the cork to move up and down. The cork will move up and down more quickly when the machine makes low frequency waves. Both high and low frequency waves will cause the cork to move up and down. The cork will move up and down more quickly when the machine makes low frequency waves. Both high and low frequency waves will cause the cork to move up and down. The cork will move up and down more quickly when the machine makes high frequency waves. Both high and low frequency waves will cause the cork to move up and down. The cork will move up and down more quickly when the machine makes high frequency waves. Both high and low frequency waves will cause the cork to move at the same speed. Low frequency waves will cause the cork to move up and down. High frequency waves will cause the cork to move forward. Both high and low frequency waves will cause the cork to move at the same speed. Low frequency waves will cause the cork to move up and down. High frequency waves will cause the cork to move forward. Both high and low frequency waves will cause the cork to move at the same speed. High frequency waves will cause the cork to move up and down. Low frequency waves will cause the cork to move forward.

The correct response is: "Both high and low frequency waves will cause the cork to move up and down. The cork will move up and down more quickly when the machine makes high frequency waves."

In high frequency waves, the wave crests and troughs pass by more rapidly, causing the cork to oscillate up and down more quickly compared to low frequency waves, where the oscillations occur more slowly.
