What is the symbol of wavelength?
The symbol of the wavelength is the lowercase Greek letter "lambda" = λ.
What is lambda in physics?
In math, it may have many meanings. It is just a letter that is used as a symbol. In a geological context, specifically in seismicity (and in Physics in general) lambda is commonly used as the symbol for wavelength, in radiometric dating, the lambda symbol is used to represent the decay constant of the parent isotope. These are two of the more common uses of the symbol in a geological context, however as stated above it may have a large number of other uses.
What does the metric symbol candela stand for?
Candela (symbol: cd) represents luminosity, the intensity of emitted light. It's not a metric symbol, but a photometric symbol.
Maxwell's Laws have the requirement of equilibrium. Why is equilibrium ignored in the application of such laws e.g. fractional wavelength antennas when a wavelength represents equilibrium?
Because of practical considerations. Unit wavelength antennas are usually impractical. Compromises are needed to provide useful solutions.
What do you call the letter or group of letters that represents an element?

What is significance of the symbol of an element?
Sigificance of the Symbol of an Element :- 1. Symbol represents name of the element. 2. Symbol represents one atom of the element. 3. Symbol also represents one mole of atoms of the element. That is, symbol also represents 6.022 x 1023 atoms of the element. 4. Symbol represents a define mass of the element (equal to Atomic Mass expressed in grams).

How is an element and a chemical symbol alike?
A chemical symbol represents an element. For example, the chemical symbol H represents the element hydrogen.
What 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?
it is the wavelength. the wavelength as the name suggests is the length of the wave. this can be applied in the formula V=F x wavelength. in which F is the frequency of the wave. the symbol for wavelength is the greek symbol lambda and looks like the half life symbol
What does a ƛ symbol stand for in a scientific equation?
I believe that is the 'lambda' symbol, signifying wavelength.
