Waves - Coggle Diagram

- - - - A bigger amplitude means that the sound will be louder. Smaller amplitude leads to a softer sound.
        
        Higher and lower frequencies determine the pitch of the sound. A high frequency will have a higher pitch while lower frequencies will have a lower pitch.
  - - - The increase of amplitude affects how bright the light is since it will increase the amount of energy that is carried by the wave.
        
        The difference of wavelength and frequency will change the colors that appears. The colors from longest to shortest wavelength is red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet.
- - - - Transverse waves
        
        Longitudinal waves
        
        Unlike transverse waves, longitudinal waves have the particles moving parallel to the wave.
        
        Transverse waves move up and down and the medium's particle will move perpendicular to the wave's movement.
      - Seismic waves is the energy that is formed from the vibration of the Earth when earthquakes occur. These waves can only be found underground which makes it one of the mechanical waves.
