Energy
an object is said to have “energy” if the object has the ability to change its environment
Two ways to transfer energy
1. through the application of a force (work)
2. waves a disturbance (oscillation) that transfers energy through matter or space (no forces involved)

Two types of waves
1. Electromagnetic (EM) a wave that does not need a medium to travel through
• We will assume that all electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light (3 x 108 m/s)*
• in vacuum 2.99792458 x 108 m/s
• in air 2.99704645 x 108 m/s
• in water 2.24900569 x 108 m/s
• in glass 2.05618970 x 108 m/s
medium a material through which a wave can travel (i.e. solid, liquid, gas)

Two types of waves 1. Electromagnetic (EM) a wave that does not need a medium to travel through
medium a material through which a wave can travel (i.e. solid, liquid, gas)
2. Mechanical a wave that needs a medium to travel through
Examples:
•Sound
•Earthquake waves

Two types of mechanical waves
1. transverse wave
particles of the medium vibrate perpendicularly to the direction of wave travel (s-wave (secondary) earthquake waves)

Two types of mechanical waves
2. longitudinal / compression wave
particles of the medium vibrate parallel to the direction of wave motion (p-wave (primary) earthquake waves, sound, deep water waves)

Two types of mechanical waves
surface waves (Rayleigh) a combination of transverse and longitudinal waves (surface water waves, earthquake)

With waves, energy is being moved from point A to point B, not matter.
