| kinetic energy | the energy of motion |
| equilibrium | describes the wave at rest position |
| wavelength | a measure from one point on a wave to the corresponding point on a wave; usually crest to crest |
| crest | highest point on a wave |
| trough | lowest point on a wave |
| amplitude | the distance a wave rises or falls from its equilibrium |
| Law of conservation of energy | energy can never be lost or gained, just transformed |
| power | the rate of doing work |
| work | uses energy and can create energy; calculated by multiplying force times distance |
| potential energy | the energy of position; stored energy |
