A set of comprehensive notes that follow the GCSE Wave Properties topic.
Learning outcomes include:
- explain the difference between longitudinal and transverse waves
- know the definitions of amplitude, frequency, wavelength and period of a wave
- know that waves transfer energy without transferring matter
- know and use the relationship between the speed, frequency and wavelength of a wave
- use the relationship between frequency and time period
- use the above relationships in different contexts including sound waves and electromagnetic waves
- know that light waves are transverse and sound waves are longitudinal
Note: Although these notes are in the format of another TES author’s, these are all re-written and is entirely my own work

Such beautiful diagrams and clear explanations. I have never seen the displacement of longitudinal waves explained so well. We use these with our classes as base notes.
