Properties of Waves: Frequency and Period

 

How are the frequency and period of a wave related to each other?

 

Experiment with the following simulation to determine the relationship between the wave characteristics of frequency and Period. Use the slider to change the Amplitude and Frequency, and notice what happens to the waves produced. Use the checkboxes to pause the wave, draw a graph, and draw a reference line to make other conclusions about the relationship between these wave characteristics.

  s(x,t)=A sin(kx -ω t)

 

 

Use the above simulation to answer the following questions?
