Part 1: Types of Waves

1. What are the two types of waves? (Select two) [cite_start][cite: 6]

Transverse

Amplitude

Longitudinal

Frequency

2. [cite_start]Match the wave type to its definition. [cite: 6]

Transverse Wave

Longitudinal Wave

The wave travels **parallel** to the vibrations (e.g., sound).

Please answer all questions before proceeding.

3. [cite_start]What is amplitude? [cite: 6]

The maximum displacement from the undisturbed position.

The distance from one peak to the next peak.

The number of waves passing a point each second.

4. [cite_start]"The distance from a point on one wave to the same point on the adjacent wave" is the definition of... [cite: 6]
