Waves
Storyboard Text
- Whats a transverse wave?
- A transverse wave is one type of a mechanical wave.
- Whats a medium?
- The medium is the material a mechanical wave travels through.
- Transverse waves move the medium up and down
- Transverse waves have resting positions halfway between crests and troughs
- The crest is the highest point of the wave and the trough is the lowest
- These waves also have amplitude and wavelength. Amplitude is the maximum distance the particles of a medium move
- The wavelength is the distance between two corresponding points
- Light waves, an audience wave, and radio waves are all examples of a transverse wave
- Very interesting. Thank you
