1Calculate Wave speed?Wave speed = distance / time
Wave speed = frequency x wavelength
2AmplitudeThis is the height of the wave - it is from the middle line to the peak or trough.
3Wave lengthThis is the distance from start to finish for one whole wave, it is from p-eak to peak.
4FrequencyThis is how many waves pass a point in one second, it's measured in beats.
5WavespeedThis is the distance a wave travels in one second, it is measured in meters per second (mps)
