  • What is the measuring unit of wave velocity
    Metre  per second ( m/s)
  • What is the wave amplitude
    .....
  • Define wave velocity
    ......
  • G.R : hearing thunder after seeing lightning although they happen in the same time
    ......
  • The rule of wave velocity
    Distance covered by a wave in meters / time in seconds
  • Measuring unit of wavelength
    Metre
  • Define the wave frequency
    ....
  • The relation between velocity and wavelength
    Directly proportional
  • Rule of wavelength
    The distance covered by waves / number of waves
  • Measuring unit of wave frequency
    Hertz
  • Rule of wave amplitude
    The vertical distance between the crest and trough of a wave / 2
  • Rule of wave frequency
    Number of complete waves / time in seconds
  • The rule of the wavelength of a longtiodenal wave
    2 times the distance between the centers of succsisve compression and rare action
  • The relation between velocity and frequency
    Directly proportional
  • Define the wave length of the longitudinal wave
    It is the distance between the centers of two successive compression or rarefaction
  • The rule of wavelength of a transverse wave
    2 times horizontal distance between the succsisve crest and trough
  • Define the wave length of the transverse wave
    The distance between two successive crests and troughs
  • The relation between frequency and wavelength is
    Inversely proportional
  • Measuring unit of umplitude
    Metre
  • What is the law of wave propagation
    It is the relation between wave velocity, its frequency and its wavelength
