It is usually measured in meters. 3 A property of wave that refers to number of wavelengths that pass a given point in 1 s. Expressed in cycles per second or Hertz 4 A property of wave that refers to the rate at which an EM wave is moving which is equal to a constant 3 x 10^8 m/s on a vacuum or empty space 5 A property of wave that refers to capacity of a wave to do work. It is often measured in terms of electron volts(eV)as its unit. 6 Part of a wave line which refers to the lowest point of a wave 7 Part of a wave line which refers to the highest point of on a wave line 8 an energy created by vibrations that propagate in all direction. 8 2 1 7 3 4 5 6
