multiple choice 2 points
base your answer(s) to the following question(s) on the diagram, which represents
waves a, b, c, and d traveling in the same medium.
which wave has the longest period?
a
b
c
d

Explanation:

• Period: The period of a wave is the time taken for one complete cycle. Visually, on a wave diagram, it can be related to the horizontal length of one cycle.
• By observing the diagram (assuming standard wave - period visual interpretation where a longer horizontal span for one cycle indicates a longer period), wave \( B \) has the longest horizontal span for one cycle among waves \( A\), \( B\), \( C\), and \( D\).

Answer:

B
