Concept explainers

Equation of Waves

Wave is an oscillation or disturbance traveling in a medium. It performs the transportation of energy but does not carry any matter. This motion of waves will transport fuel in a medium without permanent transfer of mass (particle).

a) the frequency becomes one-fourth as large

b) the frequency becomes half as large

c) the frequency remains the same

d) the frequency doubles

e) the frequency becomes four times as large
