Wave Motion disturbance or vibration that propagates through a medium, often transferring energy.

. -Waves travel and transfer energy (its amplitude) and information (its frequency)from one point to another, with no permanent displacement of the particles of the medium

Wavefront -line or a surface that connects points that are moving at the same phase and has the same distance from the source of the waves. -Wavefront is always perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Wavelength -distance between two successive particles which areat the same phase

Types of Wave Light Wave Water Wave Electromagnetic Wave Sound Wave Groups of Wave Transverse Wave vibrates perpendicular (or right angled) to the direction of energy transfer Longitudinal Wave vibrates same direction as their direction of travel
Equilibrium Position -A point where an oscillating object experiences no resultant forces. Period -time required for one complete oscillation Frequency -Number of complete oscillation in one second. Natural Frequency -Frequency of system when there is no external force acting on it. Damping
