Question

If the wavelength of a wave is 5 m, which of the following quantities is equal to 5m, considering the wave below:

• A. a
• B. b
• C. c
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A a

Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive crests or troughs. Here, a is the distance between two consecutive crests. Hence, a is the wavelength.
Thus a = 5m
