Is the distance from one compression to the next compression is the amplitude of a longitudinal dinal wave?

True


What is the measure from one compression to the next compression of a longitudinal wave?

Speed.


The distance between one point on a compression and the corresponding point on the next compression in a sound wave is called a?

wavelength


What of a sound wave is the distance between a compression or rarefaction and the next compression or rarefaction?

It is equal to wavelength.


How do you measure the wavelength of sound?

distance from any point on the wave to the corresponding point beyond the next wavelength, i.e. crest to crest, trough to trough, or because you are talking about sound, the distance from compression to corresponding compression after the rarefaction.


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.


What is the distance to one wave of the distance to the next wave?

The distance from one wave to the next wave is called the wavelength.


What is a lengthwave?

That might be "wavelength", written wrong. That refers to the distance between one maximum and the next on a wave - the distance of a full period. Lengthwave might also be an incorrect term for a longitudinal wave.


What is the distance from the crest of one wave to the crest on the next wave?

That distance is called the wavelength.


The distance from one compression to the next compression is the amplitude of a longitudinal wave?

The amplitude of a compressional wave, like a sound wave, is determined by the concentration of molecules in each compression. The higher the amplitude, or energy that a wave carries, the more compact the molecules are in a compression. The lower the amplitude, the more spread out those particles are. the amplitude of a compressional wave,like a sound wave,is determined by the contretration of waves in a compression


The distance from the top of one wave to the top of the next wave is called?

This is called 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.
