Q

Wavelength

A

The distance between a point on one wave and the same point on the next wave it is often easiest to measure this through the truck one of the waves to the truck of the next wave of all from the crest of one wave to the crest of the next wave

Q

Frequency

A

The frequency of a wave is the number of ways produced by source each second it is also the number of waves that pauses a certain point each second the unit of frequency is hertz

Q

Wavefront

A

A service that we draw to present the vibrating part of a wave if you draw a semi circular sound wave spreading out the semicircle lines all the way from the distance between two wavefronts is one wavelength

Q

Frequency of a wave can also be calculated using this equation

A

Frequency equals one overtime period F equals one over T example a soundwave has a period of 0.0001 seconds what is six frequency? You do one over 000 one over one is 10,000
