Transverse Waves
This is the measurement that measures the crest to the resting position.
Amplitude
This is the measurement from one compressed coils to another compressed coils.
Wavelength
This is the measurement of sound waves.
Decibels
The higher the amplitude, the light is ...
Brighter
This measures the seismic waves and its power
Seismograph
This is the part of a wave where the wave passes the resting line.

DOUBLE JEOPARDY
What is the opposite of compression in a wave?
Rarefactions
A sound wave is this type of wave.
Compression Wave
This is the kind of waves light waves are.
Longitudinal Wave
What causes seismic waves?
movements of the earth
Transverse waves are also this in seismology.
S-Waves
Compression waves are also this in seismology
Primary Wave
(P-Wave)
Double Jeopardy!
Sound is caused by...
Vibrations
Light travels faster until it hits ...
Media
These are the two waves that cause earthquakes.
Primary and Secondary Waves
This is the up and down motion of a wave
Oscillation
Are compression waves
Mechanical or Electromagnetic?
This increases the volume.
Amplitude
This color absorbs each color...

What travels faster P-Waves or S-Waves
P-Waves
What is the wave with the most frequency?
Gamma Rays
Compression and mechanical waves differ from electromagnetic waves by...
Mechanical waves require a
medium to be sent a certain direction.
This increases the pitch.
Frequency
What separates light waves?
Prism
This is the study of earthquakes.
