Wave speed (v) is calculated as the product of frequency (f) and wavelength (λ): v = fλ.

1. Identify the amplitude (A) from the graph. 2. Determine the wavelength (λ) from the graph. 3. Substitute A and λ into the appropriate wave equation (e.g., $f(x) = A \cos(\frac{2π}{λ}x)$).

Frequency (f) is the inverse of the period (T): $f = \frac{1}{T}$

The period (T) is the inverse of the frequency (f): $T = \frac{1}{f}$

1. Identify the known variables (e.g., frequency, wavelength, amplitude). 2. Determine what you need to find (e.g., wave speed, period). 3. Choose the appropriate formula (e.g., v = fλ, T = 1/f). 4. Substitute the known values into the formula and solve.

1: Crest, 2: Trough, 3: Wavelength, 4: Amplitude

Amplitude: The vertical distance from the resting position to the crest or trough. Wavelength: The horizontal distance between two consecutive crests or troughs.

The period (T) is the time it takes for one complete cycle of the wave, measured along the time axis.

The wavelength (λ) is the distance between two consecutive identical points on the wave (e.g., crest to crest), measured along the position axis.

1. Find the period (T) from the graph. 2. Calculate the frequency using the formula: $f = \frac{1}{T}$

A wave that repeats its pattern over and over again, characterized by wavelength, period, frequency, and amplitude.

The time it takes for one complete wave cycle.

The number of wave cycles that happen in one second, measured in Hertz (Hz).

The distance between two identical points on a wave (e.g., crest to crest).

The maximum displacement of the wave from its resting position.

Angular frequency (ω) is a measure of how quickly the oscillations are occurring, expressed in radians per second. It's related to frequency (f) and period (T) by the equations: ω = 2πf = 2π/T
