∙ 13y agoTo measure the wavelength of a transverse wave, you need you measure the distance it takes the wave to complete one complete cycle, usually from crest to crest or trough to trough.

∙ 7y agoThe same as in a transverse wave. The wavelength is one full cycle.

If two transverse waves have the same wavelength the wave with the has the greatest wave speed.?
If two transverse waves have the same wavelength, the wave with the __________ has the greatest wave speed.
What is the wavelength of a transverse wave?
2.7 cm
What determines the color of a transverse wave?
Wavelength
What is the distance from crest to crest in a transverse wave?
The distance from crest to crest in a transverse wave is called a wavelength.
How do you measure the wavelength of a transverse wave?
To measure the amplitude of a transverse wave, you measure the the maximum displacement of a point in the wave's medium relative to the medium's resting position. The more energy the wave has, th more the medium will be displaced. D
How do you measure the wavelength of a transverse?
You can measure it from crest to crest (highest point of a wave), trough to trough (lowest point of a wave), or from normal to normal.
If two transverse waves have the same wavelength the wave with the has the greatest wave speed.?
If two transverse waves have the same wavelength, the wave with the __________ has the greatest wave speed.
What is the wavelength of a transverse wave?
2.7 cm
What determines the color of a transverse wave?
Wavelength
What is the distance from crest to crest in a transverse wave?
The distance from crest to crest in a transverse wave is called a wavelength.
Lowest part of a transverse wave?
The lowest point on a transverse wave is called the trough
How do you find the wavelength of a transverse wave?
wave length = wave speed divided by its frequency
What are the two parts to a transverse wave?
A wave is composed of an amplitude and a wavelength. A transverse wave contains oscillations perpendicular to the direction the wave is traveling, for instance, a sine wave.
How do you measure the wavelength of a transverse wave?
To measure the amplitude of a transverse wave, you measure the the maximum displacement of a point in the wave's medium relative to the medium's resting position. The more energy the wave has, th more the medium will be displaced. D
What is the distance from crest to midpoint of a transverse wave?
If I understand the question correctly, that's one-quarter of a full cycle, so it is 1/4 of the wavelength. The wavelength varies from wave to wave - and this has nothing to do whether the wave is transverse or longitudinal.
What is The wavelength of a transverse wave is often measured from?
Crest to trough
What part of the transverse wave determines the color of light?
The wavelength
