Question

This is the number of complete movements of a wave per second.
In a transverse wave, this is the magnitude of height of a wave from origin to crest. In a longitudinal wave, this is corresponds to how much the wave is compressed, as compared to areas of little compression.
This is the distance from the peak to a peak of a successive wave.
A rhythmic disturbance that carries energy through matter or space.
The complete range of light waves organized by wavelength/frequency.
