The number of complete waves that pass a given point in a certain amount of time?
frequency
Are primary seismic waves slower than secondary waves?
Primary waves are called so because they are the first to arrive, and secondary waves are called so because they arrive second. Based on this logic I would say no. There is in fact a marked difference, which is used to tell how far away the epicenter is from a particular seismograph.
What is the space between waves called?
Those are called wavelengths. It is measured from the crest, i.e. the tip or point, of one wave to the one next to it. =============================== Answer #2:There is no spacing between waves. As soon as one wave is finished, the next one begins immediately, without any delay in time or space. But the distance between corresponding points on two consecutive waves is called the "wavelength".
