FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the definition of a wave period?
Back
The wave period is the time it takes for one complete cycle of a wave to pass a given point, measured in seconds.
2.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you calculate the frequency of a wave?
Back
Frequency (f) is calculated using the formula f = 1/T, where T is the period of the wave.
3.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the formula for wave speed?
Back
Wave speed (v) is calculated using the formula v = f × λ, where f is frequency and λ (lambda) is wavelength.
4.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the third harmonic of a string fixed at both ends?
Back
The third harmonic frequency is three times the fundamental frequency, and the wavelength is two-thirds the length of the string.
5.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is constructive interference?
Back
Constructive interference occurs when two waves meet in phase, resulting in a wave of greater amplitude.
6.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is destructive interference?
Back
Destructive interference occurs when two waves meet out of phase, resulting in a wave of reduced amplitude.
7.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is wavelength?
Back
Wavelength (λ) is the distance between successive crests or troughs of a wave, typically measured in meters.
