Answer the following questions in the space provided. If you wish, you may draw diagrams to aid in giving your answers. Where indicated, you must show nd labe receive full credit for a correct answer. 1, you may draw a ur cal and r calculations e's crest, trough one example of each,) crest, trough ugh 26. (A) On the sine curve of the wave illustrated below, label the wave's crest amplitude and wavelength. (You only need to label midpoint of vibration (B) What is the amplitude of the wave in centimeters? (Use the ruler given in the stud guide to answer this question.) (C) What is the wavelength of the wave in centimeters? (Use the ruler given in the stulh guide to answer this question.) (D) If this were a diagram of an ocean wave and a cork were placed on top of one of the wave's crest, what would happen to the cork? (What motion would it have?)

Explanation / Answer

Use the above figure, to answer the questions

In physics, the wavelength of a sinusoidal wave is the spatial period of the wave—the distance over which the wave's shape repeats,and the inverse of the spatial frequency. It is usually determined by considering the distance between consecutive corresponding points of the same phase, such as crests, troughs, or zero crossings and is a characteristic of both traveling waves and standing waves, as well as other spatial wave patterns

I think this can answer your question.
