Presentation on theme: "What is the difference between a crest and a trough of a wave?"— Presentation transcript:

1 What is the difference between a crest and a trough of a wave?

2

3 What is the wavelength of a wave?

4 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

5 How are frequency and period related to eachother?

6 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

7 What is the amplitude of a wave?

8 the height from the equilibrium point to the highest point of a crest
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

9 What math will we have to do this unit?
V = f l V = velocity F = frequency l= wavelength
