S1 Science Physics topic Wave terms S1 Science Physics topic

Wavelength The distance from one crest/trough to another Measured in metres (or centimetres)

Task Draw a wave with a wavelength of 20cm

Amplitude The height of a wave measured from the centre Measured in metres Is a measure of how much energy a wave has

Task Draw a wave with an amplitude of 15cm and a wavelength of 12cm.

Frequency Where have you heard the term “frequency” before?

Frequency The number of waves that pass in one second. Measured in hertz, Hz.
