Speed of light = 3.0 × 108 m/s. What is the wavelength of this wave? 2.4 × 10–8 m 3.0 × 10–8 m 0.40 m 0.80 m 2 / 5 2) The frequency of a wave is the number of oscillations made by the wave. the time taken to make one complete oscillation. the number of periods made in one second. the number of oscillations made in one second. 3 / 5 3) The diagram below shows the displacement-position graph of a wave. What is the wavelength of the wave? 7.0 m 8.0 m 3.0 m 1.5 m 4 / 5 4) The diagram shows the refraction of water waves in a ripple tank. What is the change in the velocity and frequency as the water waves enter the shallow region? D A B C 5 / 5 5) In a ripple tank experiment, a dipper is connected to a motor to generate water waves. If the motor rotates at a slower speed, what will be the effect on the frequency, wavelength and speed of the waves produced?
