Question

The diagram below shows two waves, Wave 1 and Wave 2, traveling in the same medium.

Answer 1

... The frequency of Wave-2 is half the frequency of wave-1.

... The amplitude of wave-2 is DOUBLE the amplitude of wave-1.

... The wavelength of wave-2 is DOUBLE the wavelength of wave-1.

... The wave-speeds of wave-1 and wave-2 are equal.

Answer 2

The answer is A) frequency

The amplitude of Wave 2 is greater than Wave 1's, as is the wavelength. You can see that Wave 2 has a higher period and greater peaks and troughs than Wave 1.

You can also see that Wave 2 has half the frequency, meaning Wave 1 completes 2 periods for every 1 period that Wave 2 completes.
