A wave is a disturbance that transfers energy from one point to another. The movement of particles by a wave is called vibration. There are two types of waves: transverse waves and

compressional waves.

When a transverse wave travels through a medium, matter moves up and down as the wave travels through it.
When a compressional wave travels, matter moves back and forth as the wave travels through it.

Wavelength is the distance between wave crests or troughs. Frequency is a measure of how many wave crests or troughs pass a given point in one unit of time, such as a second.

Amplitude, the height of the wave from its tough or crest to its midpoint, is a measure of the waves intensity.

Frequency is measured in hertz (Hz) the number of waves per second. Hertz means cycles per second with respect to frequency. Speed describes how fast something travels in a specific amount of time.

Wave speed is affected by different factors of its medium. The depth of water affects speed of ocean waves. The deeper the water is, the faster the waves travel. In some waves, the distance between particles affect speed.

Sound waves move faster through solids, slower through liquids and slowest through gases.

Sound travels by means of sound waves. The energy causes then to vibrate in a wave like pattern. Sound travels through air and liquids. Sound is harder to hear through liquids and solid objects. The more dense an object is the less sound will make it through.

Reflection refers to how waves bounce off objects and change their direction of travel. An echo is a reflected sound wave.

Refraction occurs when the direction of a wave changes because of change in medium.

The material a sound wave strikes affects how the sound wave moves. A material that absorbs sound well does not reflect sound waves.

A sounds pitch seems to change if its source or listener is moving. This is called the doppler effect

The difference in the loudness of a sound is called volume. The amount of energy, or intensity, of the sound wave determines the volume of a sound. The volume of a sound is measured in decibels (dB).

Constructive interference is the combined sound waves of the stereos would produce a louder sound than from one stereo alone.

Destructive interference is the sound waves together have a lower amplitude than the sound made by one sound source alone.

The difference among sound of the same pitch and amplitude in various instruments is called sound quality.

As sound waves travel, they transfer energy and as they pass through your ear canal, they cause the ear drum to vibrate that nerve cells inside the ears are stimulated. The vibrations are converted to nerve impulses which the brain recognize.
