Wave length is the inverse of frequency. It is the distance between two peaks, or the distance between two troughs, of an energy wave. Drop a rock into a pond. You get expanding waves. If you observe a wave as it goes past a certain point, you can measure the frequency, the wavelength, and the speed. These three numbers are related - given two you can calculate the third. Its the same with light, only the speed is rather fast - about 186,000 miles per second - or about 300 million meters per second.

What is the wave length of mobile?
In mobile telecommunication wave length is another word for frequency. and the length can be anything provide that it is allowed by the government
What are the sizes of each waves in the electromagnetic spectrum?
The length of each wave is 299,792,458 meters/the frequency of the wave .
What color sensation is produced by light with a wave length of 5200 A?
Green
If a sound gets louder does the wavelength of the sound it produces increase?
No. The length of a sound wave is it's frequency. Volume will increase the wave's AMPLITUDE.
What is the range of length of a tsunami wave?
it can be from 10 minutes to an hour or longer
What happenes to the wave when you decrease the wave length?
When you shorten the wave length, you increase the amplitude.
What happens to a wave when you decrease the wave length?
When you shorten the wave length, you increase the amplitude.
What type of light has a longer wave length ultra violent or infrared?
Ultraviolet has the longer wave length Infrared has the lower wave length
How is a waves frequency related to a waves length?
The product of the wave's frequency and the wave's wave length is equal to the speed of propagation of the wave.
What is the length of full wave?
The length of a full cycle of a wave is called a "wavelength".
If a wave has a low frequency how do you describe the wave length?
The frequency of a wave is not directly related to the wave length. A low frequency wave or a high frequency wave may be either long-wave or short-wave.
What is the wave length of standing wave?
it depends on the size of the wave
How is water length and frequency of a wave related?
I don't know what's "water length" but I do know that the deeper the water are, the faster the wave goes. If you meant wave length and not water length, then the longer the wavelength, the smaller the frequency of the wave.
Does wave length affect wave speed?
No....
What is the relationship between a wave frequency and its wavelength?
velocity of a wave equals wave frequency times wave length.
How do you find wave length?
the length of a wave generated by a complete vibration or time period
How do find wave length?
the length of a wave generated by a complete vibration or time period
