Front

What is the lowest point on a wave called?

Back

Trough

Front

What is the number of wavelengths that pass a point each second?

Back

Frequency

Front

True or False: The amplitude measures the length of the wave.

Back

False

Front

What is the highest point on a wave called?

Back

Crest

Front

What property of the wave is represented by the letter 'B'?

Back

Amplitude

Front

What is wavelength?

Back

The distance between two consecutive crests or troughs in a wave.

Front

What does amplitude measure in a wave?

Back

The height of the wave from the rest position to the crest or trough.

Front

How is frequency measured?

Back

In hertz (Hz), which represents cycles per second.

Front

What happens to the frequency if the wavelength increases?

Back

The frequency decreases.

Front

What is a transverse wave?

Back

A wave where the motion of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of the wave.
