Absorption
the Transfer of energy into a medium
Amplitude
the height of a wave measured from a peak to the midpoint between a peak and a trough
Frequency
The number of complete waves that pass a given point in a certain amount of time
Reflection
energy waves bouncing off the surface of an object
Refraction
energy waves that bend (change direction and speed) as they pass from one type of object to another
Speed
the measurement of the rate of change of position with respect to time
Transmission
a wave that passes from one medium to another is partially reflected and partially propagated into the new medium
Wavelength
the distance between two adjacent crests of a wave
Electrical energy
a form of energy made available by the flow of electric charge through a conducto
Light wave
a wave of energy that provides us with the visible light spectrum, the colors we see
Sound wave:
the pattern of disturbance caused by the movement of energy traveling through a medium (such as air, water, or any other liquid or solid matter)
