The displacement distance graph of two sound waves A and B, travelling in a medium, are as shown in the diagram below.

Study the two sound waves and compare their:
- Amplitudes
- Wavelengths

A cork piece is floating on the surface of the water in a pond. A piece of pebble is dropped into the water. What will be your observation?
Waves produced on the surface of the water are formed to move with a velocity of 24 ms−1. If the wavelength of these waves equals 20 cm. find the
(i) frequency (no. of waves produced per second)
(ii) the time period (i.e. the time required to produce one wave) for these waves.
