What is a medium

the substance or material through which a wave transfers energy.

100

What is a solid

Generally allow waves to travel the fastest.
200

What is frequency 

The amount of times a wave passes through per second

200

What is an electromagnet wave

An electromagnetic wave is a wave that can travel through empty space and through matter.

What is a liquid

Wave speeds are faster than in gases but slower than in most solids
300

What is Wave length

The length of a wave two identical points

300

What is a transverse wave

A wave where particles vibrate creating sound

300

What is a gas

Wave speeds are the slowest

400
What is a crest

If there is a wooden table, what is the speed of the particles moving inside of that table?

Fast

500

What is the through

The lowest point of the wave

500

What is Refraction

When a wave crosses the boundary between two different materials

500

What are sound waves

Sound travels through the air as a longitudinal wave, as the particles are moving back and forth
