continuous,regular and rythmic disturbances in a medium result from periodic vibrations of a source which cause periodic waves in that medium.

What would happen to the wave length if you could increase the frequency of a periodic wave?
If you increase the frequency of a periodic wave, the wave length decreases proportionally.
Why is wave motion doubly periodic?
Because it is periodic in space and periodic in time
A series of evenly timed pulses create a wave that can be described as a wave?
A series of evenly timed pulses create a wave that can be described as a ________________ wave.Answer: periodic
What will change the velocity of a periodic wave?
Changing the medium of the wave
A series of evenly timed pulses create a wave that can be described as a what kind of wave?
A periodic wave.
What would happen to the wave length if you could increase the frequency of a periodic wave?
If you increase the frequency of a periodic wave, the wave length decreases proportionally.
What is AC periodic wave?
A periodic wave is a wave that compares time and periods. The period is the time for one complete cycle to happen on an oscilloscope.

A periodic wave.
How do you describe a wave?
Wave is just a disturbance in a regular/periodic/organized way.
A series of evenly timed pulses create a wave that can be described as a wave.?
periodic
Is oscillation a wave?
NO,oscillation is not necessarily a wave because energy is not transported in oscillation.In oscillation there is no space periodicity.An oscillation is periodic in time only where as a wave is periodic in time and space both.
What is the difference between a pulse wave and periodic waves?
A pulse wave is a single vibratory disturbance that moves from one point to another. A periodic wave is a serious of disturbances that are evenly spaced.
Evenly timed disturbances in a medium create an?
Evenly timed disturbances in a medium create a periodic wave.
What is the wave frequency of a periodic wave of 6 s?
Frequency = 1 / (period) = 1/6th Hz
