Which is the correct definition for frequency?

• the number of waves passing a point per second.

• the distance from one point on a wave to the same point on the next wave.

• the time taken to produce one complete wave.

• the waves maximum displacement of a point on a wave from its undisturbed position.

What is the correct definition for Amplitude?
