Answer 2

A disturbance in the medium which causes the particle of the medium to undergo vibratory motion about their mean position in equal intervals of time is known as 'wave'.

Types of Waves:

1. Mechanical Waves: A wave that is in an oscillation of matter and causes the transfer of energy through a medium.
2. Electromagnetic Waves: These types of waves are created by the fusion of magnetic and electric fields. These waves are responsible for making colours in the environment visible.
3. Matter Waves: These waves are responsible for the representation of the probability of finding particles in space. Matter waves are not dependant upon the charge on the material particle.

Properties of Waves:

1. Amplitude: Amplitude is the height of the wave. It is measured in meters.
2. Wavelength: Wavelength is the distance between identical points that is present in adjacent cycles of crests of a wave.
3. Period: The time taken by a particle to complete one vibrational cycle on a medium.
4. Frequency: The number of waves that passes a point in a specific period of time.
5. Speed: The speed of the wave is the distance travelled per time of travel.

When some kind of periodic disturbance takes place on a medium, a wave motion is created. For example, playing the guitars, using microwaves are all forms of motions of waves.
