CompressionPart of a longitudinal wave where the medium
is most “crunched” together and the energy is highest

CpSymbol meaning “specific heat capacity”
![Page 8: Mr. P, Physical Science. (said “lambda”) Symbol meaning “wavelength”](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649f535503460f94c786e8/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
CrestThe highest position of a transverse wave
![Page 9: Mr. P, Physical Science. (said “lambda”) Symbol meaning “wavelength”](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649f535503460f94c786e8/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
EndothermicDescribes a situation where heat is absorbed
(it will feel cold)
![Page 10: Mr. P, Physical Science. (said “lambda”) Symbol meaning “wavelength”](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649f535503460f94c786e8/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
ExothermicDescribes a situation where heat is released
(it will feel hot)
![Page 11: Mr. P, Physical Science. (said “lambda”) Symbol meaning “wavelength”](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649f535503460f94c786e8/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
FrequencyThe number of waves that occur in a certain
amount of time (usually per second)
![Page 12: Mr. P, Physical Science. (said “lambda”) Symbol meaning “wavelength”](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649f535503460f94c786e8/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Longitudinal WaveA 1-dimensional wave; the particles of the
medium move parallel to the direction that energy is traveling
![Page 13: Mr. P, Physical Science. (said “lambda”) Symbol meaning “wavelength”](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649f535503460f94c786e8/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
MediumThe empty space or substance that a wave
travels through
![Page 14: Mr. P, Physical Science. (said “lambda”) Symbol meaning “wavelength”](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649f535503460f94c786e8/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
QSymbol meaning “amount of heat”
![Page 15: Mr. P, Physical Science. (said “lambda”) Symbol meaning “wavelength”](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649f535503460f94c786e8/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
RarefactionPart of a longitudinal wave where the
medium is least “crunched” together and the energy is lowest
![Page 16: Mr. P, Physical Science. (said “lambda”) Symbol meaning “wavelength”](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649f535503460f94c786e8/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Specific Heat CapacityThe amount of heat (in Joules) needed to
raise 1 g of a substance 1 °C
![Page 17: Mr. P, Physical Science. (said “lambda”) Symbol meaning “wavelength”](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649f535503460f94c786e8/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
SystemParts working together using energy; can be
“closed” or “open”
![Page 18: Mr. P, Physical Science. (said “lambda”) Symbol meaning “wavelength”](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649f535503460f94c786e8/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Transverse WaveA 2-dimensional wave; the particles of the
medium move perpendicular to the direction that energy is traveling
![Page 19: Mr. P, Physical Science. (said “lambda”) Symbol meaning “wavelength”](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649f535503460f94c786e8/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

WaveThese are evidence that energy is traveling
from place to place
![Page 21: Mr. P, Physical Science. (said “lambda”) Symbol meaning “wavelength”](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649f535503460f94c786e8/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
