Question
select the correct answer. an online wave simulator created these four waves. which wave has the lowest frequency?
Step1: Recall frequency - wavelength relationship
Frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength. Longer - wavelength waves have lower frequencies.
Step2: Compare wavelengths of given waves
Visually inspect the waves. The wave with the longest wavelength will have the lowest frequency. Among the options, we need to find the wave with the largest distance between consecutive crests or troughs.

The wave with the longest wavelength (visually the most spread - out wave) has the lowest frequency. Without seeing the actual wavelengths precisely, if we assume that wave B has the longest wavelength among A, B, C, and D, then the answer is B. Option B.
