    Worksheet 2 - Waves

    Uploaded by

    Mary Bakhoum
    This physics worksheet provides students with definitions and diagrams related to waves. Students are asked to label parts of a wave diagram including amplitude, wavelength, crest, trough, and equilibrium position. They are then given a matching exercise to align definitions of frequency, speed, amplitude, and wavelength with their correct meanings. Finally, students are shown three wave diagrams and asked to calculate properties like number of waves, wavelength, amplitude, frequency, and speed based on a ruler measurement and given time frame.

    Worksheet 2
    Waves
    Name:-------------------------------------- Class:------------------

    Label these parts on the wave below: Amplitude, Wavelength, Crest, Trough, Equilibrium Position

    Match the words with their correct definitions :

    1- Frequency Measured from the rest position to the top of a crest or


    the bottom of a trough – the height of the wave ( )
    2- Speed length of a single wave cycle (trough to trough OR crest
    to crest) ( )
    3- Amplitude # of waves that pass a point in a given amount of time
    ( )
    4- Wavelength The distance a wave travels over time (wavelength x
    frequency) ( )

    The time from the beginning to the end of the wave train in each situation is 1 second. (Use a ruler)
