Make sure you know the following concepts:
 How frequency and speed relate to each other
 How to calculate the speed, frequency, period,
and wavelength of a wave.
 Know the parts of a wave, ie: crest, trough,
wavelength, amplitude, frequency, period.
 How to draw pictures of waves to solve
problems
 Know what frequency and period.
 Fixed ended waves vs non-fixed ended waves
 All wave types: transverse, longitudinal,
electromagnetic, and mechanical
 Nodes and Antinodes
 Destructive and Constructive Interference
 How colors relate to wavelength
 Electromagnetic wave types and their
frequencies
