WAVE MOTION
A wave is a disturbance that carries energy from place to place.
TYPES OF WAVES
If the particle in the medium vibrates perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave then it is called TRANSVERSE WAVE
The crest is the highest point on
a wave.
PARTS OF A TRANSVERSE WAVE.
The trough is the lowest
point..

PARTS OF A TRANSVERSE WAVE.
The wavelength is the horizontal distance, either between the
crests or troughs of two consecutive waves.
.
The amplitude is the peak value of a wave. The distance from the undisturbed level to
the trough or crest.
PARTS OF A TRANSVERSE WAVE.
If the particle in the medium vibrates parallel to the direction propagation of the wave then it is called LONGITUDINAL WAVE
LONGITUDINAL WAVES
PARTS OF A LONGITUDINAL WAVE
The compression is the part of the longitudinal wave where the particles are crowded together.
PARTS OF A LONGITUDINAL WAVE
The rarefaction is the part of the longitudinal wave where the particles
are spread apart.
The wavelength is the distance from compression to compression or rarefaction to rarefaction in a
longitudinal wave.
