The highest point on a wave is:

• the crest

• the trough

• the top

The lowest point on a wave is the:

• Amplitude

• Crest

• Trough

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

• frequency

• period

• transverse wave

When the frequency of a wave increases, what happens to the wavelength?

• The wavelength is not directly affected by the frequency of a wave.

• The wavelength increases.

• The wavelength decreases.
