|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| a periodic disturbance in a solid liquid, gas as energy is transmitted through a measurement. | Wave
🗑
|
||||
| a physical environment in which pnemonea occur. | Medium
🗑
|
||||
| a wave that requires a medium through which to travel. | Mechanical Wave
🗑
|
||||
| a wave that consists of oscillating electric and magnetic fields of which radiate outward at the speed of light. | Electromagnetic Wave
🗑
|
||||
| a wave in which the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction the wave is traveling. | Transverse Wave
🗑
|
||||
| a wave in which the particles of the median vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave motion. | Longitudinal Wave
🗑
|
||||
| The highest point of a wave. | Crest
🗑
|
||||
| The lowest point of a wave. | Trough
🗑
|
||||
| the maximum distance that the particles of a waves medium vibrate from their rest position. | Amplitude
🗑
|
||||
| the distance from any point on a wave to an identical point on the next wave. | Wave Length
🗑
|
||||
| the time that it takes a complete cycle or wave oscillation to occur. | Period
🗑
|
||||
| the number of wavelengths that pass a point in a given time interval. | Frequency
🗑
|
||||
| occurs for light and other types of waves. | Doppler Effect
🗑
|
||||
| is simply the bouncing back of a wave when it meets a surface or boundary. | Reflection
🗑
|
||||
| this bending of waves as they pass an edge. | Diffraction
🗑
|
||||
| when several waves are in the same location the waves combine to produce a single new wave that is different from the original. | Interference
🗑
|
||||
| a wave whose amplitude is the sum of the amplitudes of the two individual waves. | Destructive Interference
🗑
|
||||
| can form when a wave is reflected at the boundary of a medium. | Standing Waves
🗑
