Introduction to Waves

What property of this wave is represented by the letter "A"

• amplitude

• crest

• trough

• wavelength

What property of the wave is represented by the letter "B"?

• amplitude
• crest
• trough
• wavelength

The highest point on a wave is:

• the crest
• the trough
• the top
• the coast 

The lowest point on a wave is the:

• Amplitude
• Crest
• Trough
• Wavelength

The number of wavelengths that pass a point each per second is:

• frequency
• period
• longitudinal 
• transverse wave 

Which letter(s) represent the trough of the wave?

• A
• B & D
• D
• C & G
