How are light waves different from sound waves and P-waves?
light waves have crests and troughs while sound waves and P-waves have compressions and rarefactions
amplitude, frequency, and pitch
sound waves and P-waves are longitudinal while light waves are transverse
sound waves, light waves, and P-waves
The independent variable is changed to test the hypothesis, the dependent variable may change due to the independent variable
wavelength
to ensure the results obtained are due to a difference in only one variable
longitudinal and transverse
What term is given to the distance between a certain point on one transverse wave to the same point on the next transverse wave?
