STATION #9
Wave Worksheet
One full wave (cycle) Wave train – two or more waves
Amplitude – measures the energy of a transverse wave
a) measured from the equilibrium position to the top of a crest or the bottom
of a trough (see vertical arrow)
Wavelength – length of a single wave cycle (horizontal arrow double sided arrow)
Frequency-# of waves that pass a point in a given amount of time
Speed = wavelength x frequency
The time from the beginning to the end of the wave train in each situation is 1 second.
