What is a wavelegth?
a wavelength is a distance between consecutive wave crests
What measurement describes the distance between two consecutive wave crests?
The wavelength.
What is the term for the distance from the highest part of one wave to the highest part of the next wave?
Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive wave crests.
What is the distance between crests of a wave?
The wave length.
Which term describes between any two crests in a transverse wave or the distance between any two rarefactions in a longitude wave?
If you measure the distance between any two successive or consecutive crests in case of transverse wave is called the wavelength. If we get the distance between any two crests that will be definitely an integral multiple of the wavelength. The same in case of longitudinal waves. The distance between two successive rarefactions is known to be the wavelength.

How do you work out the wavelength of a sound?
It's the distance between any consecutive crests or troughs . it is the length of a wave .

What is the definition of wavelength in units?
the distance between two consecutive compressions or rarefactions of a light wave is called its wavelength.
