You notice a wave crest pass You count another 10 wave crests in the next 15 seconds What is the frequency of these waves?
6.6666666...... Hz
What is the frequency of a wave that has 5 seconds between one crest and the next?
Frequency = 1/(time period) so frequency = 1/5 =0.2 Hz
As you sit on a dock you notice a wave crest pass You count another 10 wave crests in the next 15 seconds What is the frequency of these waves?
0.667 Hz 0.333 Hz
Which wave has a greater frequency- wave a where a crest is seen once every second or wave b where a crest is seen some evry minute?
The wave that has a crest every second has a greater frequency.
What does the wavelength of a wave measures?
The width of the wave. The wavelength is the distance (in the direction of the wave's propagation) between the top of a wave crest to the top of the next wave crest. The wavelength is the frequency divided by the velocity of the wave. v=f/l l=f/v

What is the distance from one wave crest to the next?
Wavelength, and it = velocity/frequency.
What is the frequency of these waves As you sit on a dock you notice a wave crest pass. You count another four wave crests in the next 12 seconds?
20 waves per minute. (or 1 every 3 seconds)

What is the wavelength of the wave?
The distance from one peak to the next peak
What is the distance from crest to crest of any wave called?
This distance is the wavelength of the wave.
As you sit on a dock you notice a wave crest pass You count another 16 wave crests in the next eight seconds?
22
Bottom of a wave is called a?
The lowest point of a wave is known as the trough
What is distance from one wave crest to the next crest is the wave's called?
Wave Length
