Question

1. wave e wave f which wave has the greater frequency? 4. wave g wave h which wave has the greater amplitude? 5. wave j wave k which wave has the greater frequency?

Explanation:

Step1: Recall wave - property definitions

Frequency is the number of waves per unit length (or time). Amplitude is the maximum displacement from the equilibrium position.

Step2: Analyze Wave E and Wave F for frequency

Wave E has more complete wave - cycles in the given position range, so it has a greater frequency.

Step3: Analyze Wave G and Wave H for amplitude

The maximum displacement of Wave G from the equilibrium is 5 cm and for Wave H is 8 cm. So Wave H has a greater amplitude.

Step4: Analyze Wave J and Wave K for frequency

Wave K has more complete wave - cycles in the given position range, so it has a greater frequency.

Answer:

1. Wave E
2. Wave H
3. Wave K
