What is used to measure the period of a wave?
Seconds
How do you measure the frequency of a sound wave?
Capture the sound with a microphone, feed its output into an oscilloscope with a calibrated timebase. Measure the time period T of the wave on the horizontal axis, then convert it into a frequency ( = 1/T)
How do you measure a longitudinal wave?
The details depend on what type of wave you are talking about, and what exactly you want to measure about the wave.
If a radio wave has a period of 1 us what is the waves period in seconds?
If a radio wave has a period of one then the period wave or two would be 2. This is math.
How does wave speed relate to wavelength and period?
Wave speed = (wavelength)/(period)
What is used to measure the period of a wave?
Seconds
What is the unit used to measure the period of a wave?
Seconds
How do you find the period of a wave without the frequency?
You will have to measure it.
What are some common properties of waves that scientists measure?
Amplitude period Rise Time (square wave) Fall Time (Square wave) Duty-Cycle (Square Wave)
How do you measure the frequency of a sound wave?
Capture the sound with a microphone, feed its output into an oscilloscope with a calibrated timebase. Measure the time period T of the wave on the horizontal axis, then convert it into a frequency ( = 1/T)
The time it takes two successive crests of an ocean wave to pass a given point is called a?
A wave length.
What is the period of a 60 hertz electromagnetic wave traveling at 3 times 10 to the eighth meters per second?
Hertz is the measure of the period so the period is 60 times a second.
What is the reciprical of the period of a sound wave?
The reciprocal of the period of ANY wave is the wave's frequency.
How do you measure a longitudinal wave?
The details depend on what type of wave you are talking about, and what exactly you want to measure about the wave.
How do you measure the speed of the wave?
To measure the speed of a wave, you multiply the frequency by the wavelength.
If a radio wave has a period of 1 us what is the waves period in seconds?
If a radio wave has a period of one then the period wave or two would be 2. This is math.
How do wave frequency and period of a wave relate?
Wave frequency f, and period of wave T are inverses, related by fT=1.
