  • Transverse Wave
    A wave with oscillations perpendicular to the direction of propagation.
  • Propagation Speed
    The speed at which a wave travels through a medium, dependent on wave type and medium characteristics.
  • Tension
    The force applied along a string, affecting the speed of waves traveling on it.
  • Mass per Unit Length
    The mass of a string divided by its length, influencing wave speed.
  • Amplitude
    The maximum displacement of points on a wave, related to energy carried by the wave.
  • Wavelength
    The distance between successive crests of a wave, affecting energy and speed.
  • Frequency
    The number of wave cycles passing a point per unit time, related to wave energy.
  • Kinetic Energy
    Energy due to the motion of the string as a wave propagates.
  • Potential Energy
    Energy stored due to the stretching of the string by a wave.
  • Angular Frequency
    The rate of change of the phase of a wave, related to linear frequency.
  • Linear Frequency
    The number of oscillations per second, derived from angular frequency.
  • Power
    The rate at which energy is transferred by the wave along the string.
  • Period
    The time taken for one complete cycle of the wave to pass a point.
  • Wave Equation
    A mathematical expression relating wave speed, frequency, and wavelength.
  • Energy per Unit Wavelength
    The total energy carried by a single wavelength of a wave on a string.
