Jasmine is investigating radiant energy from the sun. She identifies different kinds of electromagnetic waves, and she notices that although most are not visible to the human eye, they share many properties. Read each description of wave properties. Drag each description into the correct box. the distance a wave travels before repeating the distance a wave travels in a certain amount of time the number of waves that pass a given point in a certain amount of time half the veritcal distance from the trough to the crest of a wave Frequency Wavelength Speed Amplitude
