Question

identify the parts of the wave on the following diagram
a. choose...
b. choose...
c. choose...
d. choose...
check

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Wave Parts

In a transverse wave diagram:

• Crest (a): The highest point of the wave.
• Trough (b): The lowest point of the wave.
• Amplitude (c): The distance from the midline to a crest (or trough), representing wave height.
• Wavelength (d): The distance between two consecutive crests (or troughs), representing one full wave cycle.

Step2: Match Labels to Parts

• A (a): Crest (highest point).
• B (b): Trough (lowest point).
• C (c): Amplitude (distance from midline to crest).
• D (d): Wavelength (distance between two crests).

Answer:

A. Crest
B. Trough
C. Amplitude
D. Wavelength
