Wendy and Suzi use a long piece of rope to model wave motion. They each hold one end of the rope, and Wendy moves her end up and down, forming a wave. They form Wave 1 under one set of conditions and Wave 2 under a different set of conditions, as represented in the graphs.

Compare each of the following wave characteristics for Wave 1 and Wave 2. Use specific information from the graphs to support your comparisons:
wavelength,
amplitude, and
frequency.
Describe how many times greater the amount of energy carried by Wave 2 is than the amount of energy carried by Wave 1. Explain your reasoning.
