Waves and Properties of Waves

The highest part of a transverse wave is

• the crest

• the trough

• the wave point

• the hotel transylvania

The lowest part of a transverse wave are the

• crests

• troughs

• wave points

• low nodules

The distance between two corresponding parts of a wave is its

• amplitude

• frequency

• wavelength

• velocity

The height of the wave from its resting point is called its

• wavelength

• amplitude

• velocity

• frequency
