Waves have a repeating series of crests and troughs. The crests are where a wave's amplitude is at its maximum. Between every two successive crests is a trough, where the wave's amplitude is at its minimum. The distance between two successive crests (or troughs) is the wavelength. The measure of how frequently new crests are formed is the frequency. The speed of a wave is the product of its wavelength and its frequency.

What are the five invisible waves called?
The five invisible waves are radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, ultraviolet radiation, and X-rays. These waves are part of the electromagnetic spectrum and are not visible to the human eye.
What is the frequency if five waves pass a certain point in 10 seconds?
The frequency is 0.5 Hz. Since five waves pass in 10 seconds, you divide the number of waves by the time taken to find the frequency, which is five waves / 10 seconds = 0.5 Hz.
What where the List five types of electromagnetic radiation put in order from the longest wavelengths to the shortest?
Radio waves Microwaves Infrared radiation Visible light Ultraviolet radiation
What are five ways electromagnetic waves differ from each other?
Frequency: Electromagnetic waves have different frequencies, which determine their position in the electromagnetic spectrum. Wavelength: Each electromagnetic wave has a specific wavelength that corresponds to its frequency. Energy: Different electromagnetic waves have different energy levels, with higher frequency waves carrying more energy. Speed: Electromagnetic waves all travel at the speed of light in a vacuum, but their speeds can differ when passing through different mediums. Propagation: Electromagnetic waves can travel through various mediums, such as air, water, or glass, with some waves being able to penetrate more easily than others.
What is the amplitude for p waves?
Amplitude of a wave refers to its maximum value reached. Which is not just a simple dimension such as mm. For example the amplitude of a radio wave may be measured in milli Volts. Waves usually involve the interaction of two variables. With radio waves, these are the electric and the magnetic vectors. With a sound wave, the components are pressure and velocity; of the air particles in that case. With a sea wave, the height and the wavelength are the variables, that are inter-related. In the case of P waves (Primary or pressure waves) The actual pressure reached is seldom measured. Mainly because the medium (rock) is essentially incompressible and the size change would be minute. The velocity of the P waves is the velocity of sound in that medium, typically up to five times the speed of sound in air. It is the S waves that have substantial deflection on the surface.
What are the five properties used to explain the behavior of sound waves?
The five properties used to explain the behavior of sound waves are frequency (pitch), amplitude (loudness), wavelength, speed, and direction. These properties help describe how sound waves travel and interact with different mediums.
What happens when sound waves reach a border between different materials?
five fat things
How does the speed of sound compare with its speed through liquids and solids?
When sound waves go through liquids, they travel five times as faster than they do on land. When sound waves go through solids though, they don't go as fast.
What are five different types of waves in the electromagnetic spectrum?
Radio waves: Longest wavelength and lowest frequency, used for communication. Microwaves: Shorter than radio waves, used in cooking and communication. Infrared waves: Just beyond visible light, felt as heat, used in remote controls and thermal imaging. Visible light: The only part of the spectrum visible to humans, responsible for our sense of sight. X-rays: Higher energy waves used in medical imaging and security scanning.
Five type of air pollution?

What is the ratio of speed of light in a vacuum to the speed of sound in air?
In a rough, round figure? 930,000 to 1. Sound travels roughly 1/5 of a mile per second in air. Light travels 186,000 miles per second in a vacuum. In five seconds sound travels one mile. In five seconds, light travels 930,000 miles in a vacuum.
What are the five waveforms?
The five basic waveforms are sine, square, triangle, sawtooth, and pulse waves. Sine waves represent smooth periodic oscillations, square waves alternate between high and low states, triangle waves have a linear rise and fall, sawtooth waves have a linear rise followed by a sharp drop, and pulse waves consist of brief high and low states. Each waveform has unique characteristics and is used in various applications, including sound synthesis and signal processing.

What are 5 things that are matter and five things that are not matter?
Five things that aren't matter are: sound, light, heat, gravity, and speed. Five things that are matter are air, water, foods, pencils, and paper.
What are purple waves in flowers?
