  1. Wavelength of a Wave l Zumdahl, Zumdahl, DeCoste, World of Chemistry2002, page 324

  2. Waves Wavelength () - length of one complete wave Frequency () - # of waves that pass a point during a certain time period hertz (Hz) = 1/s Amplitude (A) - distance from the origin to the trough or crest Courtesy Christy Johannesson www.nisd.net/communicationsarts/pages/chem

  3. Waves  crest A origin trough  amplitude Courtesy Christy Johannesson www.nisd.net/communicationsarts/pages/chem

  4. Waves A greater amplitude (intensity) greater frequency (color) Courtesy Christy Johannesson www.nisd.net/communicationsarts/pages/chem

  5. Frequency 1 second Frequency 4 cycles/second = 4 hertz 12 cycles/second = 12 hertz 36 cycles/second = 36 hertz O’Connor, Davis, MacNab, McClellan, CHEMISTRY Experiments and Principles1982, page 166

  6. Waves long wavelength l Amplitude Low frequency short wavelength l Amplitude High frequency

  7. Waves 60 photons 162 photons long wavelength l Amplitude Low frequency low energy short wavelength l Amplitude High frequency high energy
