Front

What is the highest point on a transverse wave called?

Back

Crest

Front

What happens to the frequency of a wave if its wavelength increases?

Back

The frequency decreases.

Front

What do waves carry from one place to another?

Back

Energy.

Front

What is the lowest point on a transverse wave called?

Back

Trough.

Front

Which property of a wave changes when the amount of energy it has is altered?

Back

Amplitude.

Front

Define wavelength in the context of waves.

Back

Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive crests or troughs in a wave.

Front

What is frequency in relation to waves?

Back

Frequency is the number of waves that pass a given point in one second.

Front

How is amplitude defined in wave mechanics?

Back

Amplitude is the maximum displacement of points on a wave from its rest position.

Front

What is the relationship between wavelength and frequency in waves?

Back

Wavelength and frequency are inversely related; as one increases, the other decreases.

Front

What type of wave is characterized by particle motion being perpendicular to wave motion?

Back

Transverse wave.
