First, we are going to observe the water wave simulator. After you press the green button, you should see the faucet dripping water onto the screen, with ripples forming on the screen as the water drops. Below the faucet, there are two sliders: one marked "Frequency" and the other marked "Amplitude".

1. What happens to the ripples as you move the frequency slider?

2. What happens to the ripples as you move the amplitude slider?
In the top right-hand corner of the screen, click and drag the stopwatch into the simulation. Move the frequency slider as close as you can to the middle and allow the ripples to change. If you look at the right side of the ripple screen, you will see the ripples crossing the edge of the screen one by one. Start the stopwatch as one crosses out of the screen, and measure how long it takes for 10 more ripples to cross the right edge of the screen.

3. Time for 10 ripples?
Now if you divide 10 by the time you measured in question 3, you will get the frequency of the ripples (in Hz).
