10-letter words containing wave
- alpha wave — any of the electrical waves from the parietal and occipital regions of the brain, having frequencies from 8 to 13 hertz: a sign of relaxation, since they indicate a lack of sensory stimulation in a conscious person
- beta waves — a pattern of high-frequency brain waves (beta waves) observed in normal persons upon sensory stimulation, especially with light, or when they are engaging in purposeful mental activity.

- flag-waver — a person who signals by waving a flag.
- light wave — the movement of light conceptualized as a wave, defined by such properties as reflection, refraction, and dispersion
- lightwaves — Plural form of lightwave.
- make waves — a disturbance on the surface of a liquid body, as the sea or a lake, in the form of a moving ridge or swell.
- mediumwave — Of radio waves, having a wavelength of approximately 100 to 1000 meters.

- rogue wave — a random, enormous ocean wave that sometimes travels at an angle to prevailing seas.
- shock wave — a region of abrupt change of pressure and density moving as a wave front at or above the velocity of sound, caused by an intense explosion or supersonic flow over a body.
