Medium
Substance or region through which a wave is transmitted
100
A transverse wave of pure energy that can go through both a medium and empty space (vacuum). Light is this kind of wave.
Electromagnetic Waves
100
Volt
Used in Batteries

Waves
A disturbance that transfers energy
200
Light Energy
As atoms adsorbs energy, electrons jump out to a higher energy level.
200
Infrared Rays
Light rays with longer wavelengths than red light.

300
Refraction
Bending of light due to change in speed.
300
Translucent
Light is scattered and transmitted

400
Opaque
Can't see anything

Trough
The lowest point of a transverse wave
500
When one wave hits another wave, their amplitudes combine and make a new wave
