QUALITATIVE WAVES TYPES & CHARACTERISTICS jasmine lopez

Longitudinal waves are movement of the particles that are parallel to the motion of the energy.

transverse waves - movement of the particles that perpendicular to the motion of the energy.

Surface wave*s - particles travel in a circular motion.

A crest is the highest point the medium rises to and a trough is the lowest point the medium sinks to.

Amplitude- the max displacement or distance

compression-longitudinal wave where the particles are closest together.A rarefaction-in a longitudinal wave where the particles are furthest apart.
