plane and circular waves

Moves back and forth between two points.

• Oscillate

• Wave period

• Amplitude

is the amount of time it takes for a wave to complete one back-and-forth motion.

• Oscillate

• Wavelength

• Wave period

Waves with high frequencies have .............................. wavelengths.

• higher

• shorter

●the greatest height of a wave from its resting position.

• Crest

• Amplitude

• Wave length

High frequency means .................................... pitch

• high

• low

High frequency means high wavelength.

• false

• true

High frequency means particles move ........................

• slower

• faster

The wave that is caused by a disturbance at a single point.

• circular

• plane

waves spread out in all directions causing circles.

The circles get larger, but the distances between them stay the same..

• false

• true

The waves will move straight across the water in parallel lines from one location to another that travel in the same direction, not as a circle.

• plane waves

• circular waves
