  2. Define: Wavelength, Frequency, Amplitude 60 140 130 120 50 0 40 30 70 9 8 7 6 10 5 4 3 2 80 180 20 90 160 150 170 100 110 1 Seconds Left:

  3. Wavelength – • In transverse waves – distance between two crests or troughs • In longitudinal waves – distance between two compressions or rarefactions • Frequency – the number of waves that pass a point in one second • Long wavelengths have low frequencies • Short wavelengths have high frequencies • Amplitude (wave height) – the distance from the middle of a transverse wave to the crest or trough
