Question 2 of 10 • TX-Physics CR
Consider this image of a wave.
Answer
A
A graph with time in second on the x axis from 0 to 8 and amplitude on the y axis from 2 to 2. The wave starts at the origin and the trough goes up to .8, back down through .75 s and all the way down to 2 before going back up to 2 on the other side of the x axis. It is a repeated pattern with on trough and 3 crests with different amplitude.
B
A graph with time in second on the x axis from 0 to 8 and amplitude on the y axis from 2 to 2. The wave starts at the origin and the trough goes down to 2, back up through 1 s and all the way up to .7 before going back down to .2 on the other side of the x axis. It is a repeated pattern with on trough and 3 crests with different amplitude.
C
A graph with time in second on the x axis from 0 to 8 and amplitude on the y axis from 2 to 2. The wave starts at the origin and the trough goes down to .6, back up through 1s and all the way up to .6 before going back down to .4 on the other side of the x axis. It is a repeated pattern with on trough and 3 crests with different amplitude.
D
A graph with time in second on the x axis from 0 to 8 and amplitude on the y axis from 2 to 2. The wave starts at the origin and the trough goes down to 2, back up through 1s and all the way up to .7 before going back down to .2 on the other side of the x axis. Then back up to .3 on the other side of the x axis. The pattern repeats itself but flipped on the x axis
