Answer:
They don’t ‘represent’ anything, they are properties of the wave.
Depending on the type of wave, we experience them as various phenomena. For example, with a sound wave we experience frequency (or wavelength, which is just another way to describe the same property) as the pitch of the sound. We experience amplitude as the loudness of the sound, although due to the characteristics of the ear, frequency also effects perceived loudness.
If the wave is a light wave, we experience the frequency (wavelength) as the colour of the light, and the amplitude as the brightness of the light.
For many waves, we don’t perceive them at all (e.g. radio waves).
For ocean waves, frequency is the time for each peak or trough to reach us, and amplitude is how tall the wave is.
Answer:
(a). Index of refraction are
= 1.344 &
= 1.406
(b). The velocity of red light in the glass
2.23 ×
The velocity of violet light in the glass
2.13 ×
Explanation:
We know that
Law of reflection is

Here
= angle of incidence
= angle of refraction
(a). For red light
1 ×
=
× 
= 1.344
For violet light
1 ×
=
× 
= 1.406
(b). Index of refraction is given by

= 1.344


2.23 ×
This is the velocity of red light in the glass.
The velocity of violet light in the glass is given by

2.13 ×
This is the velocity of violet light in the glass.
Answer:
Thermal energy always flows from the warmer object to the colder object. This causes your hand to get cold, while the ice absorbs your heat and melts.
This question is incomplete; here is the complete question:
Marco is conducting an experiment. He knows the wave that he is working with has a wavelength of 32.4 cm. If he measures the frequency as 3 hertz, which statement about the wave is accurate?
A. The wave has traveled 32.4 cm in 3 seconds.
B. The wave has traveled 32.4 cm in 9 seconds.
C. The wave has traveled 97.2 cm in 3 seconds.
D. The wave has traveled 97.2 cm in 1 second.
The answer to this question is D. The wave has traveled 97.2 cm in 1 second.
Explanation:
The frequency of a wave, which is in this case 3 hertz, represents the number of waves that go through a point during 1 second. According to this, if the frequency of the wave is 3 hertz this means in 1 second there were 3 waves. Moreover, if you multiply the wavelength (32.4cm) by the frequency (3) you will know the distance the wave traveled in 1 second: 32.4 x 3 = 97.2 cm. This makes option D the correct one as the distance in 1 second was 97.2 cm.
