Question

the graphs below represent two waves. the waves are traveling at the same speed through the same medium. compare the waves.

Explanation:

Step1: Define amplitude

Amplitude is the maximum displacement from the equilibrium position. For Wave 1, the maximum displacement is 2 cm. For Wave 2, the maximum displacement is also 2 cm.

Step2: Define frequency

Frequency is the number of complete - cycles per unit length. In the given x - range, Wave 1 has 2 complete cycles and Wave 2 has 2 complete cycles.

Answer:

The amplitude is... equal for both waves
The frequency is... equal for both waves
