* Temperature: Temperature measures the average kinetic energy of particles in a substance, not the distance between repeating patterns.
* Color: While color is related to the wavelength of light, it is not the wavelength itself. Color is our perception of the wavelengths that reach our eyes.
* Frequency: Frequency is the number of waves passing a point per second. While wavelength and frequency are related (they are inversely proportional), they are not the same thing.
* Amplitude: Amplitude is the height of a wave, measuring the maximum displacement from its resting position. It is unrelated to the distance between wave crests.
* Speed: The speed of a wave is how fast it travels through a medium. While wavelength can be used to calculate speed, it is not the same thing as speed.
