What is the wavelength?

• length between crest to crest or trough to trough

• the height of a wave

• how fast the wave goes

• the amount of times a wave passes through a certain point

What is the amplitude of a wave?

• how often a wave passes a certain point

• the distance from the equilibrium of the wave to a crest or a trough

• the highest point of a wave

Longitudinal waves have:

• crests and troughs

• crests and compressions

• compressions and rarefactions

• troughs and rarefactions

Transverse waves have:

• crests and troughs

• troughs and rarefactions

• compressions and contractions

• rarefactions and crests

How often a wave occurs is the wave's

• frequency

• amplitude

• wavelength

• velocity

Transverse waves move mediums

• at a right angle

• in a circle

• and matter too

• at an acute angle

Longitudinal waves move:

• at a right angle compared to the direction the wave is traveling

• in a circle compared to the direction the wave is traveling

• matter

• in the same direction as the wave is traveling

What is the amplitude of this wave?

• 3

• -3

• 6

• 4
