Count the number of waves passing a point in one second. That is frequency.
Or count waves for 10 seconds and divide by 10.
To get the wavelength of a wave simply divide the wavespeed with its frequency.
The speed of a wave doesn't depend on its frequency.
the lowest point is the trough .:)
Divided the wave's speed by its wavelength.
Pp
wave length = wave speed divided by its frequency
Same as what?
In a transverse wave,amplitudeis the measure from the resting position to either the crest (high point of the wave) or to the trough (low point of the wave.)
Speed, direction, transverse or longitudinal, frequency and amplitude.
Longitudinal wave Which can be in turn interpreted as a transverse wave. It has frequency, amplitude, crests & through.
The cork will move up and down with the wave, since the wave is a transverse wave. I would think that the frequency should be the same as the wave.
Speed (of the wave) = wavelength x frequency. You normally can't do much about the speed, but if you increase the frequency, you'll decrease the wavelength.
A transverse wave
its a transverse wave
Light is transverse in nature.
A transverse wave
A wave is basically the movement of particles in the same directions. These continuous movements create the sense of "rippling" depending on which kind of wave. A wave has a wavelength ( the spacing between the high point of one wave to another) and a frequency ( How often a wave peak goes by).A transverse wave can be distinguished by looking at how each particle moves. Transverse wave particles move up and down perpendicular to direction of wave propogation.
