Waves

Waves

1. Are regular patterns of disturbance. They transfer energy and information from one point to another without any transfer of matter.

   • Waves are produced in ropes, springs and on the surface of water

2. Amplitude

   • The maximum vertical disturbance caused by a wave (i.e. its height)

3. Wavelength

   • The distance between corresponding points on two successive disturbances

4. Frequency

   • The number of waves produced (or passing a particular point) in one second
