Properties of Waves:


The length of one wave cycle is called……..
a) amplitude                        
b) wavelength
c) frequency                        
d) time period

b

Explanation:The distance between identical points (adjacent crests) in the adjacent cycles of a waveform signal propagated in space or along a wire.


The distance between two consecutive crests is called…….
a) amplitude 

b) wavelength     

c) frequency        

b

The distance between two consecutive troughs is called…….
a) amplitude

b) wavelength     

c) frequency        

b

What is the SI unit of wavelength……….
a) meter               

b) second              

c) hertz                  

a

The number of waves passing through a point in one second is called……..of the wave.
a) amplitude

b) wavelength      

c) frequency       

c

Explanation:Wave frequency is the number of waves that pass a fixed point in a given amount of time. The SI unit for wave frequency is the hertz (Hz), where 1 hertz equals 1 wave passing a fixed point in 1 second.
