Wavelength frequency time period and amplitude of sound wave
Answers
Answer:
Wavelength=the distance between two crests and troughs of wave. ... of sound waves produced in 1 second. time period=time period is taken to produce one wave of sound. amplitude =maximum displacement along the mean position of particles of medium.
Speed = Wavelength x Frequency. This equation can be used to calculate wave speed when wavelength and frequency are known.
• Wavelength can be defined as the distance between two consecutive rarefactions or two consecutive compressions. The SI unit of wavelength is meter (m).
• Frequency is defined as the number of oscillations per second. The SI unit of frequency is hertz (Hz).
• Amplitude can be defined as the maximum height reached by the trough or crest of a sound wave.
• The time period is defined as the time required to produce one complete cycle of a sound wave.
