I can interpret and sketch displacement-time graphs of transverse waves.
Show transcript
A displacement-time graph of a wave is a representation of a wave.
A displacement-time graph of a wave shows how the displacement at one point varies as the wave passes
The distance between two wave crests on a displacement-time graph is equal to the period of the wave
The period of a wave, T, is equal to the time of one complete oscillation
Frequency is equal to 1 / period
