What dose wavelenght measure?
Distance from one crest to the next crest of a wave.
What is the definition of crest and trough?
it depends on what you are talking about if your talking about light here it is light can be classified as a wave when your talking about crests and troughs a crest is the top most part of the wave if you split the wave in half the trough has the same principle it is the lowest most part of the wave if you split it in half does that clarrify a little bit?
Is wavelength the distance between two crests or troughs of waves?
No, the distance from one wave crest to the next is notcalled a trough. That distance is called a wavelength. A trough is the lowest point of a wave.
Distance between wave crests?
The distance between two crests of water is the "wavelength."WavelengthIs a one complete wave length(wave lenght)That would be the wavelength.wavelengthIn a wave, the distance from crest to crest is commonly called a wavelength.wavelengthThe distance between two corresponding crests on any type of wave is called a wavelength.That is what is considered the wavelength. Same thing with the troughs.wavelengthThe frequency of the wavelenght, or the Hertz, is the distance between two crests.ans2. wavelength is sufficient.The frequency (Hertz) will depend on the speed of the signal in that medium. Just ignore "Hertz" in the first sentence.wavelength. Which affects frequency.In sound it determines pitch. In visible light it determines color.In waves, the distance is the period. The frequency of the wave is equal to the inverse of the period.Wavelength.wavelengthdistance between two adjacent crests is called as WAVELENGTH.......Distance between two crests is the wavelength of a wave.wavelength (distance between two crests or troughs) !Wavelength.wavelengthThe distance between two consecutive crests or troughs of a transverse wave is called the wavelength.The distance between consecutive crests or troughs on a wave is called as wavelength.Wavelength
What is the distance between one trough and the next trough in a transverse wave?
You need a tape measure for that!
If the distance from one crest to the next trough is 1.0 meter what is the wavelength?
If the distance from a crest to the next trough is 1 meter, the wavelength is 2 meters, because wavelength is measure from crest to crest.
What does sound waves mean?
Sound moves by vibration. It is conducted by the vibration of matter. That vibration oscillates up and down in crests and troughs (hi's and low's). The distance or "wave length" between one crest and the next is a sound wave.
What measure the distance from one trough to the next trough of a wave?
Wave length..
What would you measure in kilometers?
the distance from one city to the next
What is the wave length of the water wave?
in order to find the wavelength, you measure the distance from one crest to the next.
How do you get a wavelengh?
Wavelength is the distance between the crest of one wave and the crest of the next wave so you just measure it I guess.
How do you measure and wavelength?
The wavelength is the distance from one peak (or trough) of the wave to the next peak (or trough). The amplitude is the distance from the mean value to the top of the peak (or the bottom of the trough). Alternatively, the amplitude is one half of the distance between the height of peak to the depth of the trough.How you measure these depends on the nature of the waves.
