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 wavelength in scince?

The distance from a crest to a crest or a trough to a trough in a wave.


What is the vertical distance between a crest and a trough?

The vertical distance between a crest and a trough of a wave is the amplitude of the wave, which represents the maximum displacement of the wave from its equilibrium position. It is measured from the midpoint between the crest and trough to the highest point of the crest or the lowest point of the trough.


What is the measurement of a wave from crest to crest or trough to trough called?

The wavelength of a wave is the distance between two identical parts of a wave in successive periods (crest to crest, trough to trough, etc.).


What is the height of a wave measured by the distance between the center of the wave and the crest or trough?

The height of a wave is measured from the center of the wave (the equilibrium position) to the crest or trough of the wave. It is half the distance between the crest and trough of the wave.


What is vertical distance between a trough and a crest?

The distance between the crest and trough of a wave is the peak-to-peak amplitude of the wave.


What term describes the distance from the crest to the trough of a wave?

The term that describes the distance from the crest to the trough of a wave is called the amplitude.


The two main parts of a wave are the?

crest and trough. The crest is the highest point of a wave, while the trough is the lowest point.


What is the distance from the through of a wave to the adjacent trough?

The distance from one trough of a wave to the adjacent trough is known as the wavelength of the wave. Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive points that are in phase, such as from trough to trough or from crest to crest.


How do you measure wavelength on a transverse wave?

To measure the wavelength of a transverse wave, you would measure the distance from a point on one wave to the corresponding point on the next wave, such as from peak to peak or trough to trough. This distance represents one full wavelength of the wave.


What is the vertical distance between the trough and crest of a wave called?

The vertical distance between trough and crest is called the height of the wave. While the crest is the highest point of a wave, the trough is the lowest point.Are you talking about waves? That simply depends on the frequency of the wave; crest and trough are just terms given to sections of waves. The crest is the top of the wave, and the trough is the bottom.It's the amplitude. Like on the drawn parts of a transverse wave. You can look it up on google images.wave hight
