Label the parts of a wave shown in the diagram:

Amplitude, Wavelength, Crest, Trough (as labeled in the diagram)

Frequency, Crest, Amplitude, Node

Wavelength, Node, Frequency, Trough

Define the following terms: Wavelength (λ), Crest, Trough, Amplitude.

Wavelength (λ): the length of one cycle of the wave. Crest: top peak. Trough: bottom peak. Amplitude: the maximum displacement from the rest position.

Wavelength (λ): the height of the wave. Crest: bottom peak. Trough: top peak. Amplitude: the distance between two crests.

Wavelength (λ): the time for one cycle. Crest: the midpoint. Trough: the maximum point. Amplitude: the length of the wave.

Wavelength (λ): the number of waves per second. Crest: the lowest point. Trough: the highest point. Amplitude: the speed of the wave.

Use the information above to the graph questions below. Mark 1 cycle of the wave.

One cycle is from 0.75 m to 2.25 m (or any other full cycle on the graph).

One cycle is from 1.5 m to 2.5 m.

One cycle is from 0.5 m to 1.0 m.

Use the information above to the graph questions below. Number of complete cycles:

There are 2 complete cycles in the graph.

There are 3 complete cycles in the graph.

There is 1 complete cycle in the graph.

There are 4 complete cycles in the graph.

Refer to the Position vs. Time graph above. Starting at 1.5 secs, when does half a cycle end?

Half a cycle from 1.5 sec ends at 2.5 sec.

Half a cycle from 1.5 sec ends at 3.5 sec.

Half a cycle from 1.5 sec ends at 1.0 sec.

Half a cycle from 1.5 sec ends at 4.0 sec.

Refer to the Position vs. Time graph above. Period:

The period is 2 seconds (time for one complete cycle).

The period is 1 second (time for one complete cycle).

The period is 4 seconds (time for one complete cycle).

The period is 0.5 seconds (time for one complete cycle).

Constructive interference; amplitude is doubled.

Destructive interference; amplitude is zero.

Complete destructive interference; amplitude is zero.

Constructive interference; amplitude is unchanged.
