get transferred.
Some waves travel at right angles to the wave vibrations. These are called
___________ waves. ____________ waves are examples of this type of wave.
Other waves travel along the same direction as the wave vibrations. These are
______ waves. _______ waves are an example of this type of wave

the next wave is the _______________ of the wave.
(b) The _______________ is the number of waves produced by the
source each second.
(c) The distance from the rest position (middle) to a trough or peak is
called the _______________ of the wave.
2 Look at the following waves. For each wave, write down the
