How waves are similar?
Things that different waves have in common:* There is some disturbance, and that disturbance is propagated (as a wave) through some medium. * Waves have a speed, a wavelength, and a frequency. * These are related by the equation: speed = wavelength x frequency. * Waves transfer energy.
How is wavelength related to frequency for waves moving at a constant speed?
The wavelength is the equal to the speed divided by the frequency. Hence: λ = v/f
Compared to the wavelength of ultraviolet waves the wavelength of infrared waves is?
Longer.
What is a wave moving in water deeper than half its wavelength called?
deep water waves
How does a decrease in velocity affect the frequency and wavelength of the waves entering the shallow water?
The frequency stays the same and wavelength decreases
If the frequency of the waves produced by a vibrating object increases how does the wavelength of the waves produced change?
The wavelength decreases. Frequency and wavelength are inversely related.
How are the wavelength and speed related to waves?
Speed c=wavelength/t = wf.
How is wavelength related to electromagnetic waves?
Each of them has one.
The frequency and wavelength of all waves are?
inversely related
How are a waves frequency and its wavelength related?
For any wave:frequency x wavelength = speed (of the wave)

How is the wavelength related to frequency for waves moving at a constant speed?
Whatever the wavelength and frequency happen to be, their product is always equal to the speed.
What is the term for the distance between two crests of water waves?
wavelength
Compared to the wavelength of ultraviolet waves the wavelength of infrared waves is?
Longer.
Which electromagnetic waves has the longest wavelength?
"radio waves" have longest wavelength..
How is wavelength related to frequency for waves moving at a constant speed?
The wavelength is the equal to the speed divided by the frequency. Hence: λ = v/f
What is a wave moving in water deeper than half its wavelength called?
deep water waves
