Term Definition
Wave length the length from one crest to another
Amplitude the maximum distance the medium moves away from the rest position
Frequency How many crests there are over a certain area
Period refers to the time in which it takes to do something
Longitude wave/ Primary Wave/ Compressional Wave/ P-wave a wave inwhuch paticles if the medium move in a direction PARALLEL to the direction which the wave moves
Transverse/ Secondary Wave/ S-Wave a wave in which particles of the medium move in a direction PERPENDICULAR to the direction which the wave moves
Rest Position the point where the wave is not moving- a strait line in the middle of the wave
Surface Wave a wave in which particle of the medium undergo a circular motion
Constructive Interference 1. 2 waves appraoach each other 2. New crest is the sum of both waves 3. waves go through as if they never met
Refraction Wave enters a new medium at an angle. One side of the wave changes speed before the other side/ ncausing wave to bend---- When no angle/ no refraction
Diffraction When a wave move around or through an opening in a barrier it bends and spreads out
Reflection When an object/wave hits surface which it cannnot pass through--- it bounces back
Doppler Effect when a sound/light wave moves, the frequency of the wave changes
Standing Waves If incoming wave and a reflected was have just the right frequency they produce a combined wave that appearsto stand still
nocles-- (0) Zero amplitude, evenly spaced
Antinodeds-- max amplitude, 1/2 way between node, max energy
Sound Waves Sound is a disturbance that travels through a medium as a longitudinal wave
