Blog Post 3: Wave Simulation

1. Which takes more energy, slow up and down, or fast up and down?
 Fast up and down takes more energy.
2. Fast frequency corresponds to low energy or high energy?
 Fast frequency corresponds to high energy waves.
3. Determine the frequency of the provided wave(frequency 27, amplitude 50)in Hz?
.98hz
4. Determine the frequency of the provided wave(frequency 100, amplitude 50) in Hz?
3.7037hz
5. Determine the frequency of the provided wave(frequency 27and amplitude 100) in Hz.
.98hz
6. What is the wavelength of the provided wave(frequency 27, amplitude 50)in cm?
60cm
7. What is the wavelength of the provided wave(frequency 100, amplitude 50)in cm?
16.5cm
8. Describe the relationships between energy, frequency and wavelength. Include descriptions for relationships of all three.
Energy- the ability to do work
Frequency- The rate at which a wave oscillates inside of a medium
wavelength- the distance between the crest of one wave to the crest of the nex.
Energy is proportional to frequency.
Wavelength was inversely proportional to the amount of energy light has.
