Amplitude of oscillation - is the maximum displacement of the oscillating particle from its rest position, Wave - is a disturbance that transfer energy from one place to another without a transfer of matter, Wavelength - is the distance between two successive crests or troughs, Frequency of wave - is the number of complete waves in one second, Oscillation - is from one maximum displacement A to the other maximum displacement B and back to A again, Period - is the time taken to make one complete oscillation, Wavefront - is an imaginary line which joins all particles that are vibrating in phase, Transverse wave - is one which the vibration of particles is perpendicular to the direction of wave motion, Longitudinal wave - is one which the vibration of particles is parallel to the direction of wave motion,
