Hello!!

properties of wave are-amplitude, frequency, period, wavelength, speed, and phase. Each of these properties is described in more detail below.

Amplitude -The amplitude of a wave is a measure of the displacement of the wave from its rest position.

Wavelength -

The wavelength of a wave is the distance between two corresponding points on back-to-back cycles of a wave. This can be measured between two crests of a wave or two troughs of a wave. The wavelength is usually represented in physics by the Greek letter lambda (λ).


Frequency and Period

The frequency of a wave is the number of times per second that the wave cycles. Frequency is measured in Hertz or cycles per second. The frequency is often represented by the lower case "f." The period of the wave is the time between wave crests.

The period is measured in time units such as seconds. The period is usually represented by the upper case "T."

Thank you
