displacement-distance graph



  • The shape of the wave is called the waveform or wave profile 

  • Two pts in a wave are said to be in phase if they always at the same stage in a cycle, eg, P and P’. 

  • All crests and troughs on a wave are always in phase .

  • This means that they always have the same direction of motion and are moving in step
