Slime1
a form of radiation travel through space and transfer
energy.
Electromagnetic waves
lowest point of a wave.
Trough
the number of occurrences of a repeating event per unit of time,
typically measured in Hertz (Hz).
Frequency
disturbances that transfer energy through a medium, such as
solids, liquids, or gases.
Mechanical wave
the phenomenon where a wave, such as light, sound, or water,
bounces off a surface and returns to the original medium.
Reflection
the distance between two consecutive peaks or troughs of a wave.
Wavelength
a wave in which the particles of the medium move
perpendicular to the direction the wave is traveling.
Transverse wave
the bending of a wave, such as light or sound, as it passes from one
medium into another with a different velocity.
Refraction
the maximum distance moved by a point on a vibrating body or
wave.
Amplitude
a wave vibrating in the direction of propagation.
Longitudinal wave
bending and spreading waves as they pass around an obstacle or
through an opening.
Diffraction
a shape that curves outward.
Convex
highest point of a wave.
Crest
the process where a material takes in energy from a wave.
Absorption
a shape that curves inward.
Concave
