Front

What is the correct formula for wave speed?

Back

Wave speed = frequency x wavelength

Front

Back

Analog signals

Front

In what type of wave does the medium move perpendicular to the movement of the wave?

Back

Transverse wave

Front

What kind of wave is characterized by the medium moving parallel to the wave direction?

Back

Longitudinal wave

Front

What is the wavelength of a wave?

Back

The distance between successive crests or troughs of a wave.

Front

What is the relationship between frequency and wavelength?

Back

As frequency increases, wavelength decreases, and vice versa.

Front

What is the amplitude of a wave?

Back

The maximum displacement of points on a wave from its rest position.

Front

What is the difference between mechanical and electromagnetic waves?

Back

Mechanical waves require a medium to travel through, while electromagnetic waves do not.

Front

What is a wave period?

Back

The time it takes for one complete cycle of a wave to pass a given point.
