What is a standing wave?
A wave with a larger vertical component than horizontal
A wave that appears to stay in place
A really big wave
The reflection of a transverse wave
A wave is completely out of phase when _____
oscillation is at right angles the way the wave travels

A playground swing swings back and forth once in 2 seconds, what is the period and frequency of the swing?
F = 1 osc/sec
P = 1 sec/osc
F = 2 osc/sec
P = .5 sec/osc
F = .5 osc/ sec
