On the wave diagram, B is the...

Question 3
3.

On the wave diagram, C is the...

Question 4

On the wave diagram, D is the...

Question 5
5.

Use the waves diagrams shown above: Which of these waves has a greater wavelength?

Question 6
6.

Draw two waves. One with high amplitude and one with low amplitude. Label which is high amplitude vs low amplitude. (keep everything else about the waves the same)

Question 7
7.

Write down two research questions we can investigate about the patterns in waves:

Question 8
8.

Does amplitude affect wave speed?

Question 9
9.

Does amplitude affect the frequency of a wave?

Question 10

Question 11
11.

Does tension affect the wave speed of a wave?

Question 12
