What is the measurement of a wave from crest to crest or trough to trough called?
The wavelength of a wave is the distance between two identical parts of a wave in successive periods (crest to crest, trough to trough, etc.).
What do you called the distance between any two successive crests of a wave?
wavelength
What and the distance between two crests and two troughs?
Half of wavelength. Say it either two successive crests or successive troughs. Then the answer will be wavelength Other wise say that the distance between successive crest and trough. That will be half of wavelength Avoid 'two'
What term describes the distance between the crest to the trough of a wave?
It is called trough. The highest point is known to be crest. The distance between successive crests is known as wavelength of the wave. This is the most important characteristic of a wave. Same way the distance between any two successive troughs too is the wavelength.
Which term describes between any two crests in a transverse wave or the distance between any two rarefactions in a longitude wave?
If you measure the distance between any two successive or consecutive crests in case of transverse wave is called the wavelength. If we get the distance between any two crests that will be definitely an integral multiple of the wavelength. The same in case of longitudinal waves. The distance between two successive rarefactions is known to be the wavelength.
The distance between two successive peaks on a wave is its?
The distance between successive identical parts of a wave is called the wave length.
Distance between identical points on a wave?
The distance between identical points on a wave is called wavelength.
What is the distance between two successive compressions called?
wavelength or wave
How would you describe the height of a cylinder or prism?
It is the linear distance between the two parallel and identical faces (which are also called the bases).It is the linear distance between the two parallel and identical faces (which are also called the bases).It is the linear distance between the two parallel and identical faces (which are also called the bases).It is the linear distance between the two parallel and identical faces (which are also called the bases).
What do you called the distance between any two successive crests of a wave?
wavelength
What is the measurement of a wave from crest to crest or trough to trough called?
The wavelength of a wave is the distance between two identical parts of a wave in successive periods (crest to crest, trough to trough, etc.).
The distance from one crest to another crest is call?
In a wave train, the distance between successive wave crests is called the "wavelength".
What is it called when the distant between successive crest waves?
the distance between the crests of two succesive waves is called the wavelength. It is directly related to the frequency of the wave
What and the distance between two crests and two troughs?
Half of wavelength. Say it either two successive crests or successive troughs. Then the answer will be wavelength Other wise say that the distance between successive crest and trough. That will be half of wavelength Avoid 'two'

What is the distance between the identical spot on two waves?
It depends what the wavelength and frequency of the wave is. The wavelength is the distance between either two minima, or two maxima.
