Responses

frequency
frequency

wavelength
wavelength

amplitude
amplitude

crest

Answer 1

I don’t see the diagram — can you upload the image or describe what point D is pointing to (e.g., a vertical distance from the midline to a peak, a horizontal distance between two peaks, the top of a wave, etc.)?

Quick guide to help identify it:
- Vertical distance from equilibrium (midline) to a peak or trough = amplitude.
- Horizontal distance between two successive crests (or troughs) = wavelength.
- Number of waves passing a point per second = frequency (not a labeled distance on the wave).
- The topmost point of a wave = crest.
