what is the phase difference of P & S
You are given the amplitude and frequency of the wave.
Amplitude only tells you the maximum value relative to where the wave oscillates about. Frequency tells you how many waves occur in 1 second. Based on that information, you can then work out the wavelength of a single wave.
Original post by MahmoodKwhat is the phase difference of P & S
Simple: P is the point where the oscillation of your transverse wave begins and S is the minimum of that.
As addition to these points, R is the point where the curve changes from the maximum in point Q to the said minimum.
