What unit do you use to measure the distance between one star to another star?
lightyear
How do you use a scale bar?
a scale bar is to measer from one distance to another. You purt your pencil or with your finger. On the key should tell you the distance. The will hepl you find it!!
The most basic way to measure the distance to a star is?
Parallax, take a measurement of where the star is at one time, take another at the exact opposite time, do a little trig and you have the distance.
What is the path of one body around another in space called?
Orbit, if it is closed otherwise one might call it a trajectory.
What is the distance travelled by light in one day?
1 light day is a distance.
The distance between one wave crest and another is known as the?
This distance is one wavelength
What is the length of one crest to the top of another crest?
I assume you mean, the crests of a wave. That distance is called the wavelength.
Is the wavelength the distance from the crest to trough?
The peak-to-peak amplitude is the distance from the trough to the crest. The wavelength is the distance from one crest to the next crest.
Which wave properties are distances?
Amplitude and wavelength are the two main distance measurements, where wavelength is the distance from one crest or trough to another, and amplitude is the distance from a crest or trough to the wave's midpoint.
Is the heat of a wave measured from the top of one crest to the top of another?
No, the heat of a wave is measured by using, for example, a thermometer to gauge temperature. The distance from crest to crest is wavelength.
The distance between the crest of the one wave of electromagnetic radiation and the crest of the next one is its?
The distance between one crest of a wave and the next is called its wavelength.
What is the distance from the crest of one wave to the crest on the next wave?
That distance is called the wavelength.
What is the distance from one crest of a wave to the next called?
The distance from one wave crest to the next one is called a wavelength.
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.
Is the wavelength a distance between one crest and the next crest?
Yes.
What is the distance from the crest of one wave to the crest of the next wave called?
Wavelength
The from one wave crest to the next crest is?
The distance? If that is the question then the answer is "wave length".
