Answer:

Temperature does not determine the height, length and the period of the wave.

Explanation:

Height of the wave shows the amplitude, the length shows the wavelength, and the period of the wave shows the frequency.

The factors that helps to determine the height, length and the period of the wave are :

  • Wind speed : The speed is equal to the product of the wavelength and the frequency of the wave.
  • Fetch : It is defined as the horizontal distance where the wind blows.
  • How long the wind blows : It shows how long the wind blows. It is inversely proportional to the frequency of the wave.

Hence, the correct option is (c) " temperature ".
