Definition of Waves
Waves are disturbances that transmit energy from one place to another.
Page 19
Electromagnetic Waves
Defined as transverse waves consisting of electric and magnetic fields.
Crest: Maximum elevation of a wave.
Trough: Maximum depression of a wave.
Amplitude: Distance from equilibrium to crest or trough.
Wavelength: Distance between successive crests or troughs.
Page 21
Frequency
Frequency is the number of cycles a wave completes in one second, measured in Hertz (Hz).
Page 22
Wavelength-Frequency Relationship
Inquiry into the relationship between wavelength and frequency.
Page 23
Inversely Proportional Relationship
Higher Frequency: Leads to Smaller Wavelength.
Less Frequency: Leads to Bigger Wavelength.
Page 24
Conclusion on Frequency & Wavelength
High frequency corresponds with small wavelength.
