Review of Waves
Review • What is the difference between asking for “the distance between successive parts of a wave and the time between successive parts of a wave”?
Review • How are wave height and amplitude related?
Review • How are frequency and period related?
Name the Behavior
What is the magnitude of one wavelength? 0. 25 m
Word Problem Practice • Two boats are anchored in the harbor, separated by a horizontal distance of 30 m. The boats bob up and down as waves enter the harbor. When one boat is at its highest point, the other is at its lowest point and there is one wave crest between them. Each boat makes exactly 2 complete up-and-down cycles every 10. 0 s. The vertical distance between a boat's highest and lowest position is 3. 0 m. Determine the wavelength (m), frequency (Hz), period (s), amplitude (m), and speed (m/s) of the waves.

What occurs when two waves interact to form a bigger wave? Constructive Interference
What occurs when two waves interact with each other to make a wave of smaller amplitude? Destructive Interference
