Is there a scale used to measure the intensity of a heat wave?
is there a scale used to measure the intensity of heat wave
What happens to the distance between the crests when the amplitude is increased?
Nothing happens. Distance between crests is a measure of frequency; amplitude is a measure of the strength, the height of the wave, or auditory volume of the signal.
A frequency of one sound wave per second is called?
Frequency is related by 1/Time. The unit is hertz (hz). One sound wave a second would yield a frequency of 1 hz.
When a sound wave with a frequency of 256 Hz overlaps with a sound wave with a frequency of 250 Hz what would the frequency of the beats be?
There should be two beat frequencies produced: 506 Hz and 6 Hz.
When a wave is passing through a uniform medium and the frequency of this wave increases it wavelength does what?
The wavelength gets longer.
What do you measure using units called hertz?
wave frequency.
What the hertz is used to measure this characteristic of a wave?
frequency
Hertz Hz is the unit used to measure a wave's?
Hertz means cycles per second. That is its' frequency.
Amplitude is the speed of the wave?
No. Aplitude is the height of the wave. Frequency and wavelength can be used to calculate the speed of the wave by multiplying them together (if the units are appropriate).
What equation is used to measure wave speed?
speed= frequency x wavelength
How do you measure the speed of the wave?
To measure the speed of a wave, you multiply the frequency by the wavelength.
What is the measure of a wave's energy?
frequency
What is the velocity of a wave with a frequency of 760 Hz and wavelength of .45?
The answer depends on the units used for .45 and since these are not given, there cannot be a sensible answer.
A wave has a frequency of 5 Hz and a wave speed of 18 ms. What is its wavelength?
Just divide the speed by the frequency. Since SI units are used, the wavelength will be in meters.
What is wave analyser?
it is an instrument which is used to measure relative amplitudes of single frequency components of complex waveform.
How do you find the period of a wave without the frequency?
You will have to measure it.
What does wave frequency measure?
The frequency expresses how many complete cycles of the wave pass a certain point every second.
