What are four ways a 'wave' can be changed?
A wave can be changed by altering its amplitude (height of the wave), frequency (number of waves per unit time), wavelength (distance between wave crests), and speed (how fast the wave travels through a medium).
Which part of the wave should be changed to alter its frequency?
To alter the frequency of a wave, you need to change the wavelength.
The speed of a wave is its wavelength multiplied by its what?
The speed of light is fairly constant. 3.0X10^8 meters per second. Sounds' speed varies with conditions , but like light it is not changed by wavelength/frequency or amplitude.
What wave has the greater wavelength?
A radio wave has a greater wavelength compared to a visible light wave.
What is the distance between a wavelength and a wave dependent on?
The distance between a wavelength and a wave is dependent on the speed of the wave and the frequency of the wave. This relationship is described by the equation: wavelength = speed of the wave / frequency.

What happens to the speed of a wave if the wavelength and frequency are changed?
The speed changes.

The distance between two successive peaks on a wave is its?
The distance between successive identical parts of a wave is called the wave length.
How do wavelength and periods relate?
Wavelength*Frequency = Velocity of the wave. or Wavelength/Period = Velocity of the wave.
What wave has the greater wavelength?
A radio wave has a greater wavelength compared to a visible light wave.
What is the distance between a wavelength and a wave dependent on?
The distance between a wavelength and a wave is dependent on the speed of the wave and the frequency of the wave. This relationship is described by the equation: wavelength = speed of the wave / frequency.
How do you calculate the speed of a wave?
you find out a waves speed by taking the wavelength and divide it by it's wave period or how long it takes for the wave to complete a full wavelength. This is what my textbook said. Speed=Wavelength ×Frequency
How does wave speed relate to wavelength and period?
Wave speed is dependent on both wavelength and period. The relationship is described by the formula: wave speed = wavelength / period. As wavelength increases, wave speed also increases. Conversely, as period increases, wave speed decreases.
Energy is inversely proportional to the wavelength of a wave. Which would have the GREATEST energy A wave with a wavelength of meters?
A wave with a wavelength of 10^-15 meters would have the greatest energy. This is because the energy of a wave is inversely proportional to its wavelength, meaning that as the wavelength decreases, the energy of the wave increases.
How can the student decrease the wavelength of the wave?
The student can decrease the wavelength of the wave by increasing the frequency of the wave. This is because wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional in a wave - increasing frequency decreases wavelength and vice versa. Therefore, to decrease the wavelength, the student should focus on increasing the frequency of the wave.
