What happens to the particles in a spring when a longitudinal wave passes along it?
They move back and forth - in this case, along the direction in which the wave advanced.
When the particles of a medium move a great distance as the wave passes does the wave have a large amplitude?
True
What happens to the matter through which wave passes after the wave is gone?
It will be like it was before
A cork floats on the water as a wave passes by What happens to the cork Will the cork's vibrational frequency be related to the water wave's frequency and if so how?
The cork will move up and down with the wave, since the wave is a transverse wave. I would think that the frequency should be the same as the wave.
When a wave passes a ship at sea how does the wave effect the ship?
the waves travel through water, but they do not carry the water with them. The ship moves up and down as the wave passes under it. The ship does not travel with the wave!

What happens to the motion of the particles in a water wave as depth increases?
The motion of the particles in a water wave decreases as depth increases because the energy from the wave at the surface losses it's power.
What happens to each water particle as a wave passes through the ocean?
it stay at the surface
What happens to the motion of the particles in water waves as the depth increases?
The motion of the particles in a water wave decreases as depth increases because the energy from the wave at the surface losses it's power.
What is the maximum distance the particles of the medium move away from the rest positions as a wave passes through the medium?
The maximum distance the particles move away from their rest positions as a wave passes through a medium is the amplitude of the wave.
What happens to interstellar gas as it passes through a spiral density wave?
what happens to interstellear gas as it passes through a spiral density wave

What moves in waves?
The particles of the medium move up and down as the wave passes. The crests and troughs of the waves move with the wave.
When a wave passes a ship at sea how does the wave effect the ship?
the waves travel through water, but they do not carry the water with them. The ship moves up and down as the wave passes under it. The ship does not travel with the wave!
What happens to the direction of the wave as it passes into the air?
The direction of the wave will eventually change to where the wind is blowing.
