The frequency, wavelength, and amplitude of a wave are interrelated characteristics. Frequency refers to the number of wave cycles that pass a point per second, while wavelength is the distance between successive crests or troughs of the wave. They are inversely related: as frequency increases, wavelength decreases, and vice versa, in a given medium. Amplitude, on the other hand, measures the wave's height and is independent of both frequency and wavelength, affecting the wave's energy but not its speed or distance between crests.
