What term refers to the number of waves passing a specific point in a given amount of time?

Answer 1

The number of waves that pass a fixed point in a fixed amount of time is known as the "frequency".

=====

is called the Frequency of the waves (located on page 10 of the Penn Foster - Sound Study Guide)

=====

The number of waves that pass a given point per second is measured in units of Hertz (Hz). Hertz is a unit for cycles per second.

The number of cycles that a wave completes in 'S' seconds is 'S' times its 'frequency'.

Answer 2

The number of complete waves that pass a given point in a certain amount of time is called the Frequency. If it is cycles per second it is called Hertz.

Answer 3

The term for the number of waves passing a specific point in a given amount of time is frequency. It is usually measured in hertz (Hz), which represents the number of cycles or waves per second.

Answer 4

That is the frequency of the wave, in cycles per second (also known as Hertz).

Answer 5

The number of cycles that a wave completes in 'S' seconds is 'S' times its 'frequency'.

Answer 6

That's the "frequency" of the wave, multiplied by

the number of seconds you watched the wave.

Answer 7

That's the wave's 'frequency' (multiplied by the

number of seconds in the given time period).

Answer 8

That is called the frequency. Measured in Hertz (cycles per second), or some multiple.

Answer 9

That is called the frequency. Frequency is measured in Hertz, also known as "cycles per second".

Answer 10
