A crest in a wavelength is the highest point of the wave where the displacement of the medium is at its maximum. It is followed by a trough, which is the lowest point of the wave where the displacement is at its minimum. The distance between two consecutive crests (or troughs) is the wavelength of the wave.
What else can I help you with?
What is the distance from crest to crest of any wave called?
This distance is the wavelength of the wave.
If the distance from one crest to the next trough is 1.0 meter what is the wavelength?
If the distance from a crest to the next trough is 1 meter, the wavelength is 2 meters, because wavelength is measure from crest to crest.
The distance from the crest of one wave to the crest of the next wave is?
That's called a 'wavelength'.
What is the distance from the crest of one wave to the crest on the next wave?
The distance from the crest of one wave to the crest of the next wave is called the wavelength. It is typically measured from crest to crest or trough to trough.
What is it call if you measure from a crest to crest?
The distance from crest to crest in a wave is called the wavelength.
What is crest to crest?
Wavelength.
What is the distance from crest to crest of any wave called?
This distance is the wavelength of the wave.
Is the wavelength the distance from the crest to trough?
The peak-to-peak amplitude is the distance from the trough to the crest. The wavelength is the distance from one crest to the next crest.
How many meters in a wavelength?
The wavelength of a wave is the distance from the crest to the next crest of a wave, usually measured in metres. A wavelength is not a unit.
When light is measured by the distance from crest to crest what is it?
Wavelength
How can you determine a wavelength?
by measuring the distance from crest to crest.
If the distance from one crest to the next trough is 1.0 meter what is the wavelength?
If the distance from a crest to the next trough is 1 meter, the wavelength is 2 meters, because wavelength is measure from crest to crest.
What two points does a wavelength span?
If you are looking at a graphic representation of a wave, wavelength spans from crest to crest.
The distance from the crest of one wave to the crest of the next wave is?
That's called a 'wavelength'.
What is the distance from the crest of one wave to the crest on the next wave?
The distance from the crest of one wave to the crest of the next wave is called the wavelength. It is typically measured from crest to crest or trough to trough.
How do you measure a transverse wavelength?
From crest to crest or trough to trough
What is the distance from the crest to crest or from trough to trough called?
wavelength
