Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In the given figure, the wave height is the vertical distance between the crest (top) and trough (bottom) of the wave. The letter B represents this distance. On the other hand, the wavelength is the distance between two consecutive crests or two consecutive troughs of the wave. The letter E represents this distance. Therefore, the best choice would be option A, where B represents wave height and E represents wavelength.
