Is wavelength measured in hertz or meters?
Usually, no. The wavelength of visible light is usually measured in nanometers. Only larger forms of electromagnetic radiation, like radio waves, are measured in meters.
What is the unit used to measure radiant energy?
Radiant energy does not exist in quantum units because radiant energy has no wavelength
What is Wave frequency is measured by?
There are basically three characteristics. Frequency, wavelength and velocity are those three. Out of these three two could be measured relative to time. Frequency = number of oscillations or vibrations or rotations per second Velocity = distance covered by the disturbance in one second
What is The wavelength of a transverse wave is often measured from?
Crest to trough
What is the unit with which we can measure the volume of a solid?
The volume of a solid is measured in cubic units
Is wavelength measured in hertz or meters?
Usually, no. The wavelength of visible light is usually measured in nanometers. Only larger forms of electromagnetic radiation, like radio waves, are measured in meters.
What are the metric units for wavelength frequency?
Wavelength is a length. Hence, the metric unit for it is "meter". Frequency is a reciprocal of time. Hence, the unit for it is "per second", named "Hertz".
How many meters in a wavelength?
The wavelength of a wave is the distance from the crest to the next crest of a wave, usually measured in metres. A wavelength is not a unit.
How many crests are there in one wavelength?
usually 1 - a crest is the highest tip of a wavelength. But if the wavelength is measured from the highest point them in 1 wavelength there will be 2 crests
What is a unit for measuring a waves length?
Wavelength is usually measured in metres or millimetres.
What units can be used to measure charge?
Electric charge is usually measured in Coloumbs.Electric charge is usually measured in Coloumbs.Electric charge is usually measured in Coloumbs.Electric charge is usually measured in Coloumbs.
What units are measured for isotherms?
Usually degrees Celsius.
Can a nanometer measure a wavelength?
Yes. The wavelengths of visible light are usually measured in nanometers.
What units are distances to stars measured in and why?
Usually such distances are measured either in light-years, or in parsecs.
What units is the speed of light in when determining wavelength?
in the wavelength equation c=lamda*f, the speed of light is measured in m/s. The constant is 3.00 x 10^9 m/s.
The torque output of an engine is usually measured in the units of what?
Foot Pounds
Why is perimeter measured in units and area measured in sq units?
Because a perimeter is measured in linear units while an area is measured in square units.
