How do you call the number of waves that pass a given point in a specific time, commonly one second?

That's the "frequency" of the wave.

The number of waves that pass a given point in a specific time is called frequency, measured in hertz (Hz), where 1 Hz equals one cycle per second. Frequency is inversely related to period, and it's crucial in various fields like music and telecommunications. Understanding frequency helps us grasp how waves behave in different mediums.
