The amplitude is the distance from the rest point to the crest or trough
5.

Rest Position

The imaginary line in a wave
6.

Frequency

The number of wavelengths to pass a certain point in a certain amount of time
7.

Transverse Waves

  • In this wave, energy moves at right angles to the direction the wave moves.
  • These waves move perpendicular
  • Energy moves up and down
8.

Longitudinal

  • Longitudinal waves move back and forth.
  • These waves move parallel
