1
Q
Wave speed formulae
A
Wave speed =frequency * wavelength

Q
what is the phase of a wave?
A
How far the wave is through it’s cycle
3
Q
What is the phase difference of a wave?
A
the measure of the difference in where two waves are in their cycle
4
Q
How can the wave difference be measured?
A
Angles or as fractions of the wave cycle
