Define wavelength.
Think about the peaks of a wave.
What unit is frequency measured in?
It’s named after a physicist who studied waves.
What is the distance between two consecutive crests of a wave called?
Think about what a wave looks like!
True or False: Amplitude refers to both the height and energy of a wave.
Louder sounds indicate greater wave energy.
If a water wave travels with a speed of 15 m/s and has a wavelength of 3 m, calculate its frequency.
Use the wave speed formula; remember to rearrange it to find frequency.
Consider a sound wave with a frequency of 1000 Hz that travels at a speed of 340 m/s. Calculate the wavelength.
What happens when you rearrange the formula to solve for wavelength?
