A wave is a disturbance that transfersenergyfrom one place to another without transferring matter. Waves transfer energy away from the source, or starting place, of the energy. The contact of raindrops or a stone on the surface of the water is the source of energy for the water waves. Wave...
Energy Transfer - Waves. Waves A wave is any disturbance that transmits energy through matter or empty space. Energy can be carried away from it’s source. WAVES Regular, Rhythmic disturbance in a field or medium where a transfer of energy occurs. 1 Wave Properties & Types of Waves. 2 Wa...
This lesson will discuss how waves transfer energy and the different types of energy that are moved through waves. This lesson will also discuss how waves are measured, and where they are found in the physical world. Ocean waves transfer energy, not matter....

Catch a wave. Ask a friend to stand a few feet away from you. Stretch a spring between you. Shake the spring to transfer energy to it. What happens? The spring bounces up and down in waves. When the waves reach your friend, they bounce back to you!
