Question

identifying parts of a transverse wave
label the parts of the transverse wave.
amplitude:
crest
trough:
wavelength:

Explanation:

• Amplitude is the maximum displacement from the rest position, which is represented by \( B \).
• Crest is the highest point of the wave, which is \( A \).
• Trough is the lowest point of the wave, which is \( C \).
• Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive identical points (e.g., crest - crest or trough - trough), which is \( D \).

Answer:

Amplitude: \( B \)
Crest: \( A \)
Trough: \( C \)
Wavelength: \( D \)
