1
New cards

amplitude

the amount of space between the highest or lowest point and the resting line.

2
New cards

wavelength

how long the measurement is of a line that is a complete circle.

3
New cards

hertz

how many times a measurement of a full circle is made in a second.

4
New cards

velocity

the equation output of hertz and wavelength.

5
New cards

trough

the lowest point of a line

6
New cards

crest

the highest point of a line

7
New cards

transverse

a line that stretches up and down rather than being along the same of a line. proportional.

8
New cards

compressional

a line that stretches left or right, parallel to the wavelength.

9
New cards

compression

the most dense point on a compressional wave.

10
New cards

rarefraction

the most least dense point on a compressional wave.
