EX: The waves came towards in shore because of the wind

EX: This fact has been employed for separating waves of large wavelength, and in this way waves of length 0 .

EX: Now the amplitude evidently corresponds to the loudness, and the length of period corresponds to the pitch or frequency.

EX: In all cases of wave motion the wave-length is connected with the velocity of propagation of the radiation by the relation v=nX, where n is the frequency of the oscillations and X is the wave-length

EX: Wave speed comes in when wind gets stronger.

EX: Loud music can create sound waves.

EX: The electromagnetic spectrum, starting from the waves with the longest wavelengths (and least energy), consists of radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, x-rays, and gamma radiation.
