What happened when the tuning fork was placed in the water?

How did it happen?

Energy can create a ______ wave.

Waves can have two different types: A ______ transverse wave. This is made when the energy is perpendicular to how the wave moves (displacement) it looks like ______ a sideway S.

A ______ longitudinal wave. This is made when the energy moves along a straight line (parallel to displacement).

When energy moves as a longitudinal wave the particles don’t ______, but they do vibrate.

Particles don’t travel the ______ moves from one particle to another.

Draw and label the five parts of a basic transverse wave: Rest/Equilibrium, amplitude, wavelength, a crest, and a trough.

What is different about these waves?

What is different about these waves? Draw and label.
