wavelength - the distance between the crest (or trough) of one wave, and the crest (or trough) of the next
amplitude - the height or depth of the wave above or below the resting position
frequency - measured in Hz which is cycles per second. frequency is how often the wave passes a given point. for instance, A.C. electricity in your home cycles at 60 Hz, this means that essentially, electric features in your home are having power cycled to them 60 times a second. a wave passing a given point five times every second would have a frequency of 5 Hz and so on and so forth.
Hope this helped!

What are the two properties of sound waves that you use to classify different sounds?
The two properties are :- Pitch & Amplitude
How sound waves can be modelled with water waves?
Not very well, because they're different types of waves. They have some similar properties, but water waves are transverse waves (the water goes up and down, perpendicular to the direction of travel) and sound waves are longitudinal waves (the air vibrates parallel to the direction of travel).
What are the properties of electromagnetic waves?

What models explain the behavior of electromagnetic waves?
Many properties of electronmagnetic waves can be explained by a wave model. However, some properties can be explained by a particle model.
What are 4 basic properties of waves?
The fundamental descriptors of waves are, wavelength, frequency, amplitude, and velocity.
What are properties of waves?
There are different kinds of wave, such as sound waves, electromagnetic waves, water waves etc. So the first property I would describe as the wave medium. Then you would have the additional properties of amplitude and frequency.

What are three properties of waves?
There are different kinds of wave, such as sound waves, electromagnetic waves, water waves etc. So the first property I would describe as the wave medium. Then you would have the additional properties of amplitude and frequency.
Which waves have some electrical properties and some magneric properties?
Electromagnetic Waves.
What waves have some electrical properties and some magnetc properties?
Electromagnetic Waves.

The wave patterns seen in Figure 25.6 are composed of circles What does this tell you about the speed of the waves in different directions?
speed of the waves will not change by the pattern of waves. the speed of a wave will change only when the medium or its properties change.
What is a way light and sound are different?
light has properties of both a wave and a particle whereas sound travels exclusively as a waves. i think Einstein did some work with light waves
What is mean by Eletromagnetic waves?
The waves which have both properties as that of electricity & magnet.

Which properties does a longitudinal wave lack?
Longitudinal waves have all the same properties as transverse waves: speed, frequency, wavelength, and amplitude
