The lowest point on a wave is the:

• Amplitude
• Crest
• Trough
• Wavelength

The number of waves that pass a point per second is:

• frequency
• period
• longitudinal 
• transverse wave 

The type of waves that require medium to pass through:

• Mechanical Waves
• Electromagnetic Waves

When the frequency of a wave increases, what happens to the wavelength?

• Nothing

• The wavelength increases.

• The wavelength decreases.

• More specific information is needed to form a conclusion about the wavelength.

A mechanical wave cannot travel through...

• a vacuum (empty space)
• water
• air
• glass
