What is depth as it is relating to the ocean?
Depth is a measure of distance between the surface and the ocean floor.
Do miles measure area?
Only if they are SQUARE miles; otherwise, they measure length (distance), height or depth.
What is spatial depth?
it goes in both direction to measure the distance of something from top to bottom.
What type of energy is used to measure water depth today?
The question is flawed. Water depth is a measurement of distance not energy. Unless of course you are asking about the method in which they measure water depth in which the question still makes little sense.
Does wavelength measure depth distance energy speed volume or time?
Wavelength is a measure of depth/distance - namely the distance between peaks or troughs in a wave. For light this is referring to peaks/troughs of signal strength. Because the front velocity of a photon of light is always constant (ALWAYS, WITH RESPECT TO ALL FRAMES OF REFERENCE IN THE UNIVERSE, NO EXCEPTIONS), the wavelength of a photon is also a direct measure of it's energy.
Why o Can a clinometer be used to measure the depth of something?
No, a clinometer is not used to measure the depth of something. It is used to measure the angles of incline, slope, and elevation but not the actual depth.
What is a submarines periscope depth?
It depends on the submarine. If measure the distance from the top a fully extended periscope to the bottom of the boat you will get the "Depth of the Keel" at which the periscope is out of the water. Generally between 30 feet and 70 feet.
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.
What is a depth gauge?
A device to measure the tire's thread depth.
What is the difference between a fathom and a furlong?
They are both units of measurement of distance, but a furlong is a distance equal to 201.168 meters. A fathom is a distance equal to 1.8288 meters. They are often mistaken for the same thing.
What is the definition of depth constancy?
Depth constancy refers to the ability of our visual system to perceive objects as maintaining a consistent depth regardless of changes in the viewing angle or distance. This phenomenon allows us to perceive objects with the correct depth relationships even as they move relative to our point of view.
What does a bathometer measure?
Depth
