Question
Answer
_____ are caused by vibrations of a medium.   Waves  
🗑
_____ is the material that a wave can travel through.   A Medium  
🗑
______ are the tops of a transverse wave.   Crests  
🗑
______ are the very bottoms of a transverse wave.   Troughs  
🗑
______ the starting point of the wave.   Restingpoint  
🗑
In a ________, the particles move perpendicularly compared to the wave.   Transverse Wave  
🗑
A ________ has the particles move back and forth, just like the wave.   Longitudinal Wave  
🗑
_______ are the part of a longitudinal wave that are closer together.   Compressions  
🗑
_______ are where the particles are more spread out in a longitudinal wave.   Rarefactions  
🗑
______ is an activity involving a force and movement in the direction of the force.   Work  
🗑
_____ is the rate of doing work or the rate of using energy.   Power  
🗑
_____ is the number of waves that pass through a point at any time.   Frequency  
🗑
_____ is the distance between any similar point in a wave.   Wavelength  
🗑
The _______ is a measure of how far particles in the medium move from their resting point.   Amplitude  
🗑
_____ is the capacity of doing work   Energy  
🗑
