WHAT IS
A WAVE?
WAVE
•A TRAVELLING DISTURBANCE THAT CARRIES
ENERGY FROM PLACE TO PLACE WITH OR
WITHOUT A MEDIUM.
VOCABULARY
•DISTURBANCE
•MEDIUM
DISTURBANCE
MEDIUM the substance
that carries a
wave (or
disturbance)
from one
location to
another.
TWO CLASSIFICATIONS OF WAVES
•According to Propagation
-Transverse Waves
-Longitudinal Waves
•According to Medium
-Mechanical Waves
-Electromagnetic Waves
TYPES OF WAVES
ACCORDING TO
PROPAGATION
TRANSVERSE WAVES
•the movement of the particles of the medium
is perpendicular (at a right angle) to the
direction of propagation of the wave.
•(ex. electromagnetic waves,
rope waves,
ocean waves)

CHARACTERISTICS
OF WAVES
WAVE CHARACTERISTICS
•Wavelength
•Amplitude
•Frequency
•Wave speed
1. WAVELENGTH
•Symbol: λ
•The distance between one point on a wave
and the exact same place on the next wave.
2. AMPLITUDE
•The vertical distance of a wave
3. FREQUENCY
•Number of waves passing through a given
point in one second
•Unit: Hertz (Hz)
•𝑓 =
𝑣
𝜆
•Where:
•f = frequency
•v = wave speed
•Λ = wavelength
3. FREQUENCY
•SAMPLE PROBLEM #1
•A wave has wavelength of 10 m and a
speed of 340 m/s. What is the frequency
of the wave?
• 𝑓 =
𝑣
𝜆
•𝑓 =
340 𝑚/𝑠
10 𝑚
•𝑓 = 𝟑𝟒 𝑯𝒛
3. FREQUENCY (TRY THIS ONE!)
•SAMPLE PROBLEM #2
•The speed of a wave is 65 m/sec. If the
wavelength of the wave is 0.8 meters, what
is the frequency of the wave?
• 𝑓 =
𝑣
𝜆
•𝑓 =
65 𝑚/𝑠
0.8 𝑚
•𝑓 = 𝟖𝟏. 𝟐𝟓 𝑯𝒛
3. FREQUENCY (TRY THIS ONE!)
•SAMPLE PROBLEM #3
•A wave traveling at 230 m/sec has a
wavelength of 2.1 meters. What is the
frequency of this wave?
• 𝑓 =
𝑣
𝜆
•𝑓 =
230 𝑚/𝑠
2.1 𝑚
•𝑓 = 𝟏𝟎𝟗. 𝟓𝟐 𝑯𝒛
4. WAVE SPEED
•Distance travelled by a given point of a
wave, such as crest or trough, in a given
interval
•Unit: m/s
•𝑣 = 𝑓 x 𝜆
•Where:
•f = frequency
•v = wave speed
•Λ = wavelength
4. WAVE SPEED
•SAMPLE PROBLEM #1
•A wave has frequency of 50 Hz and a
wavelength of 10 m. What is the speed of
the wave?
•𝑣 = 𝑓 x 𝜆
•𝑣 = 50 Hz x10 m
•𝑣 = 500 m/s
4. WAVE SPEED (TRY THIS ONE!)
•SAMPLE PROBLEM #2
•A wave with a frequency of 14 Hz has a
wavelength of 3 meters. At what speed
will this wave travel?
•𝑣 = 𝑓 x 𝜆
•𝑣 = 14 Hz x 3 m
•𝑣 = 42 m/s

Editor's Notes

  1. Usually the balls are close enough together to touch, and then if you move the left one farther left and let go, in a second or so the right one will pop up and out, come back down, hit the one next to it, and then the left one will go back to where you pulled it to a few seconds before. Air in a room looks rather like this. There are spaces between the balls, and there are balls on all ssides of the ones in the above diagram. When you push air molecules together (with a speaker cone, for instance, all the nearby molecules will crowd together and they act like rubber balls, so they get squeezed and then bounce back.
  2. It may be from oil, gas, or coal. Did you know that ocean waves could be used as an energy source too? Mechanical systems placed in the ocean or near the shore transform the energy from waves into electricity. Unlike oil, gas, or coal, the energy from ocean waves will not run out. Although wave energy technology is still very new, many scientists are optimistic about its possible use around the world. These creations are so wonderful that they should be respected or taken care of, if possible. God really is an amazing God!
