Explain the relationship between local particles vibrations and overall wave motion?
Most waves are caused by a vibrating object. Electromagnetic waves may be caused by charged particles.
What are light energy moves as waves are called?
vibrating waves
Resonance occurs when an object vibrating at or near the resonant frequency of a second object causes the second object to vibrate What form of waves are involved in resonance?
standing waves
Are waves created by vibration?
Waves that travel through a medium are caused by vibration eg sound waves are caused by vibrating drum/ vocal cords etc and this causes the air particles to vibrate; a vibration in a still pond will cause waves of water. However, light, radio waves are radiation. Electromagnetic waves are radiated eg light from the Sun is radiated to Earth through the vacuum of space.
If the frequency of the waves produced by a vibrating object increases how does the wavelength of the waves produce change?
As all EM waves do a constant speed ('c'). If the frequency increases (i.e. the waves are more frequent) the distance between the wave peaks (wavelength) must reduce. For visible light waves, this produces a 'blue shift.'

What are waves are caused by?
Waves are caused by wind hitting the surface of the water. They are caused by earthquakes too.
Where do light waves originate?
Light waves originate from vibrating electrons.
What are sound waves produced by a vibrating object?
SEISMIC WAVES.Tranverse Waves.
Sound waves are produced by what object?
Vibrating objects.
What are light energy moves as waves are called?
vibrating waves

Do sound waves move closer or farther away from a vibrating object?
farther away
How do sound waves begin?
Basically, they begin with some vibrating object producing that sound.
If the frequency of the waves produced by a vibrating object increases how does the wavelength of the waves produced change?
The wavelength decreases. Frequency and wavelength are inversely related.
