What ids the difference between standing and travelling waves?
Same as standing and traveling people: standing waves don't move, traveling waves do.
General idea of waves?
In physics, gravitational waves are ripples in the curvature of space time that propagate as a wave, travelling outward from the source.
Wave motion on a medium transfer?
If you are talking about electromagnetic waves then an easy example would be light travelling through glass. If you are talking about sound waves than you could use the example of sound travelling along a wooden floor.
Where do waves originate?
Longitudinal waves are the result of earthquakes, and are also known as Primary, or P-Waves. Longitudinal waves are faster than Transverse (Secondary) Waves. A diagram of a Longitudinal wave is a straight line, with a denser area where the wave itself is travelling.

What is meant by electromagnetic radiation?
electromagnetic radiation is caused by radiant energy generated by accelerating electrons of photons travelling as waves.
What are heat waves called that are travelling at the speed of light?
radiation
What occurs when they are seismic waves travelling on Earth's crust?
Earthquakes
Waves that move the particles of the medium parallel to the direction that the waves are travelling are called?
the distance between two corresponding parts of a wave is a waves
The process of sound waves travelling to the brain is known as what conduction?
The process of sound waves travelling to the brain is known as sensorineural conduction. Hearing loss may be sensorineural, conductive or a mixture of both.

What is the definition of wave train?
it is a series of waves travelling in the same direction and spaced at regular intervals
Do light waves travel towards or away when travelling through a slower medium?
towards the normal
What causses refraction?
The velocity of light (and other electromagnetic waves) depends on the medium through which it is travelling.
