WAVES :
VIBRATIONS THAT TRANSFER ENERGY FROM PLACE TO PLACE WITHOUT MATTER BEING TRANSFERRED


TRANSVERSE : OSCILLATIONS ARE AT RIGHT ANGLES TO THE DIRECTION OF TRAVEL Et ENERGY TRANSFER ( LIGHT )

LONGITUDINAL : OSCILLATIONS ARE IN SAME DIRECTION AS DIRECTION OF TRAVEL & ENERGY TRANSFER ( SOUND)



> THEY CAN BE REFLECTED , REFRACTED ,
AND INTERFERE .
