Answer:

Amplitude—distance between the resting position and the maximum displacement of the wave

Frequency—number of waves passing by a specific point per second

Period—time it takes for one wave cycle to complete

wavelength λ - the distance between adjacent identical parts of a wave, parallel to the direction of propagation.

Tension - described as the pulling force transmitted axially by the means of a string, a cable, chain, or similar one-dimensional continuous object, or by each end of a rod, truss member, or similar three-dimensional object

Which one is correct and why?​
Gelneren [198K]

'A' and 'C' are exactly the same circuit, except the voltmeter's terminals are flipped.

'A' is the correct way to hook everything up.

If you start at the positive terminal of the battery, and follow the flow of current through the circuit and around to the negative terminal, you're following the path where the voltage gets lower and lower and lower all the way.

So each time you come to any device in the circuit ... whether it's a resistor or a meter ... you would be hitting the positive side of it first, and then the voltage where you come out on the other side of it would be lower.  

So the left side of the resistor is more positive, and the right side is more negative.  The voltmeter is connected correctly in 'A', but it's backwards in 'C'.  If you connect the voltmeter like in 'C' and turn things on, the voltmeter will try  to go <em>down</em> from zero.  You can't read the number on it, and It's possible that the voltmeter might be damaged.
