FISRT SCRIBE, "WAVES"

Hello fellow physics classmates,
I am Sam and I will be scribing for Fridays class. We started off by looking at how waves are made and key terms. We were given booklets out that had key terms and some formulas. We learned that a continuous or periodic wave is produced by a disturbance that is moving back and fourth continuously, that is the source is oscillating or vibrating.
click HERE to see the key terms of a wave.

To find the frequency of a wave its,
frequency = oscillations/ time
The period is the inverse of the frequency,
Time = 1/frequency.

We also had a handout to do, which we already corrected in class. We were also given another handout, I guess it was for homework because we didn't really have time to do it in class. The second sheet is CHARACTERISTICS OF WAVES. make sure you finish it for class :)
and there you have it, Fridays class. The next scribe will be
