Draw a wave with an amplitude equal to 3 meters and wavelength equal to 5 meters. You should have at least two full waves drawn. Assume each box is equal to 1 meter.
Draw a wave with an amplitude equal to 1 meter and wavelength equal to 3 meters. You should have at least three full waves drawn. Assume each box is equal to 1 meter.
A wave traveling at 56 m/s has a wavelength of 8 meters. Determine the frequency (in Hz) of this wave. You must include the equation you used and must show your work to earn full credit. Circle your final answer with correct units!
A wave has a wavelength of 29 meters and frequency of 5 Hz. Determine the speed (in m/s) of this wave. You must include the equation you used and must show your work to earn full credit. Circle your final answer with correct units!
If the amplitude of a wave increases, the energy of that wave:
As the frequency of a wave decreases, the energy of that wave:
