Required practical activity — Required practical activity 8
AQA requires observations and measurements of frequency, wavelength and speed for waves in a ripple tank and waves in a solid.
Interactive Practical · GCSE Physics
Wave speed, frequency and wavelength
Freeze ripple-tank waves and measure ten wavelengths against a rule, then tune a vibration generator to find stationary waves on a string, and work out both wave speeds.
This simulation supports preparation and data-analysis practice. It does not replace carrying out real practical work.
