Pearson requires investigation of the suitability of equipment for measuring speed, frequency and wavelength in both a solid and a fluid, including ripple-tank work and waves in a solid.

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.
