What is the number of wavefronts per second that pass a fixed point?
A
Amplitude
B
Frequency
C
Speed
D
Wavelength
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Wave frequency is the number of waves that pass a fixed point in a given amount of time. The SI unit for wave frequency is the hertz (Hz), where 1 hertz equals 1 wave passing a fixed point in 1 second.

Detailed explanation-2: -The number of waves passing through a point in one second is called frequency.

Detailed explanation-3: -In physics, the term frequency refers to the number of waves that pass a fixed point in unit time.

Detailed explanation-4: -Explanation: Frequency is defined as the number of vibrations per unit of time and in one vibration one wave crest passes through a particular point. So the number of wave crests passing a given point per unit time is called frequency.
