  • P waves are also called longitudinal waves
  • P waves are all same width, just different closeness
  • One tight curl and one loose curl make one wave
  • Transversal waves are also called S waves
  • The S wave looks like a real wave
  • In S waves there are crests and troughs
  • The amplitude is the length from the equilibrium to the crest or trough
  • Wave speed = frequency multiplied by wavelength
