What is the distance between to point of the crest of a wave it is called what?
In a wave, it is called the wave length.
What is the horizontal distance between crests of waves?
The wavelength is the distance between two consecutive corresponding points on a wave.Distance between two crests is the wavelength of a wave.
The distance between corresponding points on a waves cycle is called its?
Wavelength
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 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 is the horizontal distance between called?
It is called the displacement in the horizontal direction.
The straight line distance and direction between two points are together called?
Distance is the scalar quantity which does not have any direction but the displacement is the both the distance and direction. Hence displacement is the vector quantity. So the answer for the above question is DISPLACEMENT
What is the direction distance berween between initial and final position of body?
That's called the body's " displacement ".
What is a changing distance between one object and another called?
When an object's distance or direction from another object is changing, it is called motion.there are a number of possibilities depending on the exact nature of the physics.relative velocityrelative displacementrelative acceleration
What is straight line distance and direction called?
I have no idea
What is the distance between from crest to trough in a wave called?
If you mean the distance along the direction of propagation, that's a half-wavelength. If you mean the distance perpendicular to propagation (i.e. the "height" of the wave), it's the amplitude.
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 and direction of an object from the starting point called?
Displacement.
What is the distance and direction from one place to another called?
length
When you slide a given distance in a given direction what is it called?
a translation
What are Waves that move the particles of the wave parallel to the direction the waves are traveling are called?
the distance between two corresponding parts of a wave is a waves
Waves that move the particles of the medium parallel to the direction that the waves are travelling are called?
the distance between two corresponding parts of a wave is a waves
