The Nature of Waves: Properties of Waves

The video tutorial explains the characteristics of waves, focusing on amplitude, wavelength, and frequency. It describes how amplitude indicates the energy of a wave, with higher amplitude waves having more energy. Wavelength is defined as the distance between two adjacent crests or troughs, while frequency is the number of complete waves passing a point in a given time. The tutorial uses examples to illustrate these concepts, such as comparing wave amplitudes and demonstrating frequency changes by moving a rope at different speeds.

Define wavelength and describe how it is measured.

What happens to the frequency of waves when the rope is moved quickly?
