  2. 4. The distance between two points on a wave, e.g. between two crests or two troughs
  3. 7. Wave motion in which the oscillation is in the same direction as(parallel to) the direction in which the wave is traveling.
  4. 8. The highest point of the wave above the rest position.
  5. 9. The maximum displacement. Measured from the centre of the oscillation
