Question

match the following parts of a periodic function with the correct term.

1.match with the correct term.
a. amplitude b. crest c. wavelength

1. match with the correct term.

a. wavelength b. midline c. amplitude

1. match with the correct term.

a. trough b. crest c. amplitude

1. match with the correct term.

a. midline b. trough c. amplitude

1. match with the correct term.

a. amplitude b. crest c. midline

Explanation:

1. Label 1 points to the highest point of the wave, which is a crest.
2. Label 2 measures the distance between two identical points on consecutive waves, which is wavelength.
3. Label 3 measures the vertical distance from the midline to the crest, which is amplitude.
4. Label 4 points to the lowest point of the wave, which is a trough.
5. Label 5 points to the horizontal dashed line that is the central line of the wave, which is the midline.

Answer:

1. B. Crest
2. A. Wavelength
3. C. Amplitude
4. B. Trough
5. C. Midline
