Question

identifying the parts of a
label the parts of this wave.
a:
b:
c:
d:

Explanation:

• Amplitude (A): It is the maximum displacement of a point on a wave from its rest position.
• Wavelength (D): The distance between two consecutive points (such as crests or troughs) that are in - phase on a wave.
• Crest (A could also be considered as part of the crest in some basic wave - labeling, but typically amplitude is the measure. If we assume a more basic labeling where A is the crest (the highest point of the wave)): The highest point of a wave.
• Trough (C): The lowest point of a wave.

Answer:

A: Crest; B: Amplitude; C: Trough; D: Wavelength
