Wave Properties

Frequency
the rate at which a vibration occurs that constitutes a wave, either in a material (as in sound waves), or in an electromagnetic field (as in radio waves and light), usually measured per second.
Period
the interval of time between successive occurrences of the same state in an oscillatory or cyclic phenomenon, such as a mechanical vibration, an alternating current, a variable star, or an electromagnetic wave.
Amplitude
the maximum extent of a vibration or oscillation, measured from the position of equilibrium.
Wavelength
the distance between successive crests of a wave, especially points in a sound wave or electromagnetic wave.
