Waves 2
Cards in this deck (8)
- 1Displacement (x) (metres)distance a particle moves in a specific direction
- 2Amplitude (A) (metres)maximum displacement from the equilibrium position
- 3Phase (ø) (degrees, radius)the point or stage particles are at within an oscillation
- 4Phase difference (∆ø) (degrees, radians)difference in phase angle between two waves of the same frequency and wavelength, where 360° represents a single whole cycle of the waveform
- 5Wavelength (lambda) (metres)the distance along the wave in its direction of travel between consecutive points where the oscillations are in phase
- 6Wavespeed (v) (m/s)v=f lambda
- 7Frequency (f) (Hertz, Hz)-
- 8Period (T) (seconds)-
