The number of wavelengths that pass a fixed point each second is?
No that is frequency. Wavelength is how long it takes one wave to pass a certain point fully once
A certain color of light has a frequency of 650000000000000 cycles per second How many waves of this light pass by in one second?
650,000
How many waves pass a point in one second?
That number is equal to the frequency of the sound or electromagnetic radiation.
What is the behavior of the waves when they pass from one medium to another?
If your talking about wavelengths, like in light, it might change depending on the medium it moves trough...
How many wavelengths per second is a radio frequency on the FM band of 99.5 megahertz?
To determine the number of wavelengths per second for a radio frequency on the FM band of 99.5 megahertz (MHz), we can use the formula: Wavelength = c/f Where: c= is the speed of light in a vacuum (approximately 3* 10^8 meters per second), f= is the frequency of the radio wave in hertz (Hz). First, we need to convert the frequency from megahertz (MHz) to hertz (Hz). Since 1 MHz = 10^6 Hz, the frequency in hertz is: f = 99.5MHz10^6 Hz/MHz = 99.510^6 Hz Now, we can calculate the wavelength: Wavelength = 310^8m/s/99.510^6 Hz Wavelength = 3/99.5 m Wavelength approx 3.02 meters So, for a radio frequency on the FM band of 99.5 megahertz, there are approximately 3.02 meters per wavelength. To find the number of wavelengths per second, we can use the reciprocal of the wavelength: Number of wavelengths per second = 1/Wavelength Number of wavelengths per second = 1/3.02 m Number of wavelengths per second approx 0.331 wavelengths/second Therefore, a radio frequency on the FM band of 99.5 megahertz has approximately 0.331 wavelengths per second.
I am the number of wavelengths that pass a point in one second. What am I?
frequency
If seven wavelengths pass in one second - what is the frequency?
7 hertz. Since frequency of the wave motion is defined as the number of waves ie number of wavelengths crossing a particular point in the medium in one second.
The number of wavelengths that pass a fixed point each second is?
No that is frequency. Wavelength is how long it takes one wave to pass a certain point fully once
Will light pass through two successive colour filters?
Yes, if the passband of the first filter includes that of the second one, and the light contains wavelengths that fall within their common passband.
What is the frequency of a wave when one wave passes in 8 seconds?
Frequency is measured in Hertz (Hz), which is the number of wavelengths that pass in one second. Since one wavelength is passing every eight seconds, the frequency is 1/8 Hz.
What does the number of wavelengths that pass a given point in one second measured in hertz mean?
Some Definitions 1 hertz is one repetition of a sine wave from 0 to maximum positive amplitude back through zero to maximum negative amplitude and back to zero, ie alternating current or a radio wave Frequency is defined as the number of hertz ie repetitions of the cycle (hertz) in one second Wavelength is the distance from end to end of one hertz/cycle these properties are related and are expressed by the following equation velocity = frequency times wavelength the number of wavelengths that pass a given point in one second if expressed in hertz would be the frequency

The number of ocean waves that pass a buoy in one second is?
The number of ocean waves that pass a buoy in one second is the frequency of the wave. The crest of a transverse wave is its highest point.
Is wavelengths measured from the top of one wave to the top of another true or false?
True. The wavelength is often measured from the top of the first wave to the top of the second wave. But it can be measure from the bottom of one to the bottom of the second as well.
