Amplitude - A wave’s intensity; the maximum distance a wave carries the particles of a medium from its original position., Compression - A point where the medium is at its most squished (or at maximum density)., Energy - The ability to do work. Examples of energy include light sound, heat, and electricity., Frequency - The number of waves produced during a given amount of time., Hertz (Hz) - The scientific unit for frequency; number of times a wave passes in one second., Longitudinal Wave - A wave that moves the particles of the medium in the same direction that the wave itself is moving., Mechanical Wave - A disturbance that carries energy from one place to another through a medium—a liquid, gas, or solid., Medium - Matter—such as a liquid, gas, or solid—that mechanical waves carry energy through., Particle - A tiny portion of matter. When waves carry energy through matter, the waves move the particles of the medium temporarily., Rarefaction - A point where the medium is most spread out (or least dense)., Wave - A disturbance that carries energy from one place to another., Wavelength - The distance between any point on a wave to an identical point on the next wave., mechanical wave - a wave that requires a medium to transfer energy, decibel - a unit to measure the intensity (loudness) of a sound,
