What is the bottom of a transverse wave called?

Back

Trough

Front

What is the measurement of the distance the particles move from the resting point of the wave?

Back

Amplitude

Front

What do waves transfer?

Back

Energy

Front

What is the term for the highest point of a wave?

Back

Crest

Front

What is the distance between two consecutive crests or troughs in a wave?

Back

Wavelength

Front

What is the number of waves that pass a point in a given time called?

Back

Frequency

Front

What is the relationship between wavelength and frequency in a wave?

Back

They are inversely related; as wavelength increases, frequency decreases.

Front

What type of wave moves particles perpendicular to the direction of wave travel?

Back

Transverse wave

Front

What is an example of a transverse wave?

Back

Light waves and waves on a string.

Front

What is the formula for calculating wave speed?

Back

Wave speed = Wavelength x Frequency
