Waves Review Chapter 17Name ______________________________Hr_____
1. The illustration below shows a series of transverse waves. Label each part in the space provided.a. b.c.d.e.f.g.Fill in the blanks:2. Waves carry from one place to another.3. The highest point on a transverse wave is the while the lowest part is the .4. The is the height of the wave.5. The distance from one crest to the next is the .6. Below are a number of series of waves. Underneath each diagram write the numbers of waves in the series.a. Which of the above has the biggest amplitude? b. Which of the above has the shortest wavelength?c. Which of the above has the longest wavelength?
