Waves
Transverse
e.g. electromagnetic waves
gamma ray
X Ray
ultraviolet
visible light
infrared
microwaves
radiowaves
water waves
light
Longitudinal
e.g. sound
series of compression and rarefactions
Compression = region of higher pressure and density of particles
Rarefaction = region of lower pressure and density of particles
Propagation: vibration and collision of particles
transfer of energy without a transfer of medium
speed = frequency x wavelength
