(e.g. water waves- wind vibrates on surface of ocean or bath, microwaves, radio waves) - 3Compression wavesTravel in same line parallel to direction energy is traveling
(e.g. sound waves- vibrations on drum skin or vocal cords) - 4WavelenghtDistance between trough and crest, never changes
- 5AmplitudeHeight of troph/crest, increases with energy
- 6FrequencyNumber of amplitudes passed per a second at a fixed point, Increases with energy
- 7SpeedWavelenght x frequency
