in a compressional wave, the matter and the wave move (a)   to each other

The highest parts of a transverse wave are known as (a)  

the lowest point of a transverse wave is known as the (a)  

On a compressional wave, the areas where the coils are dense are known as (a)  

On a compressional wave, the less dense regions of coils are known as (a)  

the distance between one point on a wave and the similar point nearest to it is known as the (a)

We measure wavelength from (a)   to crest.

the number of wavelengths that pass a fixed point in a second is known as the (a)  

frequency is measured in units called (a)

on a transverse wave, amplitude is measured from the crest or the trough to the ________ __________

(a)  

what wave behavior occurs when a wave strikes an object that it cannot pass through and it bounces off of it?

(a)  

according to the law of reflection, the angle of (a)   is always equal to the angle of reflection

a wave will refract when it passes from one medium to another because of a change in its (a)  

for refraction, the greater the change in speed the (a)   the wave bends

when an object causes a wave to change directions and bend towards it, that is known as (a)  

when two or more waves overlap to make a new wave, that is known as (a)  

when waves interfere in such a way that cause them to add together, that is known as (a)   interference

when waves combine in such a way that cause the waves to subtract, that is known as (a)   interference
