The number of waves that pass by per second is known as:

• pitch

• period

• amplitude

• frequency

In a transverse wave is moving to the right, how is the energy in the wave moving with respect to the direction of the wave?

• in the same direction as the wave

• perpendicular to the wave

• in opposite direction of the wave

• none of these

Frequency is measured in

• meters

• hertz

• kg

• joules

What type of wave is light?

• longitudinal

• transverse

• electromagnetic

• two of these!
