What is the difference between a crest and a trough of a wave?
What is the wavelength of a wave?
Wavelength
• the distance from a particular height on the wave to the next spot on the wave where it is at the same height and going in the same direction
How are frequency and period related to eachother?
• Frequency (f) and period (T) are exact inverses of each other – there is a very basic pair of formulas you can use
to calculate one if you know the other
What is the amplitude of a wave?
• the height from the equilibrium point to the highest point of a crest or
• the depth from the equilibrium point to the lowest point of a trough
What math will we have to do this unit?
V = f lV = velocityF = frequency = l wavelength
