longitudinal waves
a wave that vibrates forward instead of up and down
surface waves
seismic wave that travels on the surface of earth
transverse waves
waves that vibrate at right angles to its origin
a disturbance in matter that carries energy from one place to another
Properties
frequency
number of cycles in a given amount of time

period
the time needed for one cycle
wavelength
distance between a given point on one wave and the same point on another wave in a new cycle
speed
speed of waves is the wavelength multiplied by the frequency of the waves

amplitude
total displacement of a wave from its original resting position
the more energy a wave possess the greater the amplitude of the wave will be
Electromagnetic Waves
waves that are created by changes in both electric and magnetic fields
