A type of wave where the disturbance of the particles of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of movement of the wave

Displacement of the medium in a transverse wave is at a maximum

Two points that have exactly the same movement at the same time

Distance between successive points that are in phase

Region in a longitudinal wave where the particles are furthest apart

Displacement of the medium in a transverse wave is at a minimum

Phenomenon that occurs when two waves meet or overlap

Position of a wave if there is no disturbance moving through it

Time it takes for one complete wave to move past a certain point

Phenomenon that occurs when two waves that are in phase overlap

Region in a longitudinal wave where the particles are closest together

Number of waves that move past a certain point in one second

Phenomenon that occurs when two waves that are out of phase overlap

Distance that a wave covers in one second

Type of wave where the disturbance of the particles of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of movement of the wave
