#Equation for intensity of a light wave manual#

A disturbance is anything that is moved from its state of equilibrium.

More specifically, sound is defined to be a disturbance of matter that is transmitted from its source outward. Review properties of waves-amplitude, period, frequency, velocity and their inter-relations.

Review waves and types of waves-mechanical and non-mechanical, transverse and longitudinal, pulse and periodic.

(B) investigate and analyze characteristics of waves, including velocity, frequency, amplitude, and wavelength, and calculate using the relationship between wave speed, frequency, and wavelength.
