Wave Behavior

DoNow: What is the difference between wave propagation speed and wave frequency? Why do you think some students get them confused? (notes)

AIM: I can use key vocabulary to describe what is necessary for mechanical waves to propagate or travel; and identify the landmarks that characterize their shape as the propagate through a medium.
