Question illustration
Answer
A
A graph with time in seconds on the x axis from 0 to 8 and amplitude in meters on the y axis from negative 4 to 4. The wave motion is right away from the origin. The first crest starts at the origin and crosses the x axis at 2 s.
Option A
B
A graph with time in seconds on the x axis from 0 to 8 and amplitude in meters on the y axis from negative 4 to 4. The wave motion is right away from the origin. The first crest starts at the origin up to 2 m and crosses the x axis at 2 s.
Option B
C
A graph with time in seconds on the x axis from 0 to 8 and amplitude in meters on the y axis from negative 4 to 4. The wave motion is right away from the origin. The first crest starts at the origin up to 3 m and crosses the x axis at 1.7 s.
Option C
D
A graph with time in seconds on the x axis from 0 to 8 and amplitude in meters on the y axis from negative 4 to 4. The wave motion is right away from the origin. The first crest starts at the origin up to 3 m and crosses the x axis at 1.7 s.
Option D
