Flashcards do conjunto (8)
- 1what type of wave is a sound wave?longitudinal waves
- 2what is the amplitudethe distance from the centre line to the top of a crest or to the bottom of a trough
- 3what is a wavelengthThe wavelength of a wave is the distance between two corresponding points on the back-to-back cycles of a wave. This can be measured between two crests of a wave or two troughs of a wave.
- 4what is the crestthe highest part of a wave
- 5what is the troughthe lowest part of the wave
- 6what is frequencyThe frequency of a wave is the number of waves that pass by each second and is measured in Hertz (Hz).
- 7how is frequency measuredIt is measured in hertz (Hz)
- 8what way do longitudinal waves travelthey move the same way they are travelling (side to side)
