🌊 Part 1: Wave Properties Vocabulary

The _____________ of a wave is measured in metres (m), while the _____________ is measured in hertz (Hz). The _____________ tells us how far the water particles move from their resting position, and the _____________ tells us how quickly the wave pattern moves across the water surface.

📐 Part 2: Wave Equation and Calculations

v = _________________

f = _________________

λ = _________________

Scenario A: A water wave has a frequency of 2.5 Hz and a wavelength of 1.2 metres.

Scenario B: Ocean waves have a wavelength of 15 metres and a frequency of 0.8 Hz.
