Question

NOT MATH RELATED BY REALLY NEED HELP :) what are some features of waves? Please help! :) Thx! Will give medal and fan

Answer 1

There wavy. ;) OK, ignore that...

Crest - the highest point in the wave.
Trough - the lowest point in the wave.
Wavelength* - the horizontal distance between successive crests, troughs or other parts of a wave.
Wave height - the vertical distance between the crest of a wave and its neighboring trough. This term is commonly used when describing water waves where the undisturbed surface is not easily determined.
Amplitude* - the amount of displacement from the equilibrium or rest position. Equal to one half the wave height.
Undisturbed surface - resting state or equilibrium position of medium in the absence of a wave.
Period* - the time it takes for successive crests or troughs to pass a specific point.
Frequency* - the inverse of period.The number of crests or troughs that pass a point during a set time interval.

Answer 2

I'm not sure either so I'm asking other people :) I think it mean an aspect of waves

Answer 3

This is my source. http://scienceprimer.com/wave-features All you have to do is type wave features into google and alot of easy websites come up. Hope it helps!

Answer 4

You are here
Features of a wave
A standard set of terminology is used to describe the feature of waves. The following illustration shows a cross-section through a transverse wave*. Switches below the main window can be used to label the following features:

Crest - the highest point in the wave.
Trough - the lowest point in the wave.
Wavelength* - the horizontal distance between successive crests, troughs or other parts of a wave.
Wave height - the vertical distance between the crest of a wave and its neighboring trough. This term is commonly used when describing water waves where the undisturbed surface is not easily determined.
Amplitude* - the amount of displacement from the equilibrium or rest position. Equal to one half the wave height.
Undisturbed surface - resting state or equilibrium position of medium in the absence of a wave.
Period* - the time it takes for successive crests or troughs to pass a specific point.
Frequency* - the inverse of period.The number of crests or troughs that pass a point during a set time interval.

A video demonstration of the illustration can be found below the illustration.You can also test your understanding with Features of a wave concept questions.

Wavelength: 20 m
Waveheight: 10 m
Amplitude: 5 m
