Wave Properties

Description

A transverse wave travels along a rope. Key wave properties — wavelength, amplitude, crest, and trough — are labeled. A ValueTracker drives time-dependent animation to show wave motion. The wave equation v = fλ is displayed.

Phases

#	Phase Name	Duration	Description
1	Static Wave	2s	Sine wave appears with labeled parts
2	Traveling Wave	3s	Wave animates rightward with ValueTracker
3	Frequency Demo	3s	High-frequency wave appears for comparison
4	Formula	2s	v = fλ displayed
