waves - Coggle Diagram
waves
features of a wave
crest
top of wave
amplitude
from zero line to crest or trough the distance
trough
bottom of wave
zero line
runs through the middle of the wave
wavelength
distance from start of one wave to the next
sound waves
mechanical waves
needs particles to travel
speed is 343m/s
distance = speed x time
mechanical
can trale through a particles
electromagnetic
can travel through vacum
tranverese
wave travels pependicular to energy
longitudinal
wave travels parrel to enegy
the wave equation
wavespeed is frequency x wavelenght
