What is displacement
How far an object is from where it started
What is amplitute
Maximum displacement of a vibrating particle
What is wavelength
Distance between 1 point on a wave to another point on the next wave
What is a cycle
One complete wave
What is a period
Time for 1 complete wave to pass a fixed point
What is frequency
Number of complete waves passing a point per second (Hz)
What is the calculation for period
1 ÷ frequency / T=1/f
What is the calculation for wavespeed
Frequency x wavelength/cvb
