What is the vertical distance between the highest and lowest points of a wave?
The amplitude of a wave measures the height of a wave, as commonly depicted on a 2-D graph. However, amplitude tends to measure purely the absolute value of the distance from 0 or the baseline. So a wave with a height of 2 would not be said to have an amplitude of 4 due to the height above and below 0, but rather just an amplitude of 2. Hope this helps.
Which distance is greater?
The distance between the North and South poles
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.
What is a pflugel?
The distance between the points.
What is the standard distance between the two holes of a stationery punching machine?
The distance is 7cm.
If you use an oscilloscope to measure the distance between crests of a soundwave what property of the wave are you measuring?
You are measuring wavelength or frequency , which may also be used to determine the amount of energy a wave has because in light waves the higher the frequency the more energy the wave carries
What property of a microscope affects the sharpness of its images?
the distance between the lenses
Which property of waves is the distance between one point on a wave and that same point on the wave next to it?
That distance is a definition, not a wave property. It's defined as the "wavelength".
Which property of waves is the distance between one point on a wave and that same point on wave next to it?
That distance is a definition, not a wave property. It's defined as the "wavelength".
What statement describe the physical property of density?
the distance between two points
What property of light is defined by the distance between identical points on adjacent waves?
Wavelength
What is the difference between telivision and cathode ray oscilloscope?
difference between cathode ray oscilloscope and TV receiver
Which property of waves is referred to as the distance between one point on a wave and that same point on the wave next to it?
Wavelength
How did the distance between England and American influence colonists ideas about leadership?
follow me on instagram im cute and i post cool pictures: nicox33 & also to get me instafamous tag my hashtag in one of your pictures: nicox33
What are the differences between cubism pictures and renaissance pictures?
the difference between these is that renaissance pictures don't have cubes in and cubism pictures do!
Main difference between spectrum analyzer and cathode ray oscilloscope?
an oscilloscope give amplitude v/s time display of a wave, whereas the spectrum analyzer gives amplitude v/s frequency display. the oscilloscope gives distribution of energy in wave with respect to time whereas the spectrum analyzer displays frequency components of a wave and their amplitudes.
What is the vertical distance between a wave trough and a wave crest?
In the study of wave patterns, this distance is referred to as Amplitude. It is arrived at by calculating the height of waves ( or, in this instance the height between a wave crest and the trough that follows it), passing a fixed point in space. Along this fixed point, ( actually a line, oriented vertically) some convention of measurement would be used ( inches, meters, etc). For a visual idea, seeing an Oscilloscope in operation, displaying a Sine wave pattern, will display an Amplitude that can be manipulated through the use of the Amplitude dial. The Oscilloscope is a measurement tool used in the Study of the Physics of Sound, and other applications.
