the max. distance that the particles of the medium moving away from their rest positions as a wave passes through

What is amplitude?

100
You can increase the amplitude of a wave in a rope by moving your hand up and down a greater distance.
How can you increase the amplitude of a wave of a wave in a rope?
100
the wavelength of a transverse wave measures the distance of the crests
What does the wavelength of a transverse wave measure the distance of?
100
the wavelength measures the distance of the crests.
What does the wavelength measure the distance of?
100
speed=mass.acceleration
What is the formula for speed?
200
the distance between two corresponding parts of a wave
What is wavelength?
200
the maximum distance the medium moves up or down from its rest position
What is "amplitude of transverse waves"?
200
To find the wavelength of a wave, you have to have speed being divided by the frequency.
How do you find the wavelength of a wave?
200
To find the frequency of a wave, you have to have speed divided by wavelength.
How do you find the frequency of a wave?
200
To find the speed of a wave, you have to multiply the wavelength and frequency of a wave.
How do you find the speed of a wave?
300
the number of complete waves that pass a given point in a certain amount of time

light waves and primary waves are the waves that are fast
What waves are fast?
400
the units for frequency
What is hertz?
400
the measure of how compressed or rarefied the the medium becomes
What is ''amplitude of longitudinal wave"?
400
the wavelength of a longitudinal wave measures the distance of the compressions
What does the wavelength of a longitudinal wave measure the distance of?
400
frequency is measured in units called hertz(Hz)
What unit is frequency measured on?
400
If you increase the wave frequency, the wavelength decreases.
If you increase the wave frequency, what happens to the wavelength?
500
amplitude, wavelength, and frequency
What do the basic properties include in this section?
500
a high-energy wave causes more compression and rarefaction than a low-energy wave
What does a high-energy wave cause more of than a low-energy wave?
500
A wave travels a certain distance before it starts to repeat.
What does a wave do before it starts to repeat?
500
By moving your hand up and down more quickly, it increases the frequency.
How can you increase the frequency?
500
If the medium doesn't change, the speed is constant.
What happens if the medium doesn't change?
