What and the distance between two crests and two troughs?
Half of wavelength. Say it either two successive crests or successive troughs. Then the answer will be wavelength Other wise say that the distance between successive crest and trough. That will be half of wavelength Avoid 'two'
What is half the vertical distance between the crest and trough of a transverse wave called?
amplitude
Half the vertical distance between the crest and through of a wave is called the?
The vertical distance between a wave's midpoint and its crest or trough is called is peak amplitude. This differentiates this measurement from the vertical distance from a crest to a trough, which is called its peak-to-peak amplitude.
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
What is the distance from a crest of a wave to the midway point of that wave?
the point of inflection will appear half the distance between the peak and trough of a sinsoidal wave.
What is the distance between the crest and trough of a walled called?
Distance between a trough and crest in a wave is half wavelength

Half the vertical distance between the crest and the trough of a wave is called the what?
Amplitude is approximately half the height of a wave or the vertical distance between still water level and the wave peak.
What is the half perpendicular distance from the top of the crest to the bottom of the trough?
That is the mean amplitude of the wave.
What the amplitude in a water wave is?
The height of the wave measured from the place of zero disturbance - in other words, half the vertical distance between crest and trough.
What is the distance between from crest to trough in a wave called?
If you mean the distance along the direction of propagation, that's a half-wavelength. If you mean the distance perpendicular to propagation (i.e. the "height" of the wave), it's the amplitude.
What is the definition of crest and trough?
it depends on what you are talking about if your talking about light here it is light can be classified as a wave when your talking about crests and troughs a crest is the top most part of the wave if you split the wave in half the trough has the same principle it is the lowest most part of the wave if you split it in half does that clarrify a little bit?
What is the trough of a wavelength?
Measuring a wave from crest to trough in the verticaldirection will give the amplitude of the wave. It's called the peak to peak value (as it is is a measure of the distance from the positive peak to the negative peak -- the crest and trough). Measuring the wave in the horizontal direction from a crest to a trough will result in half a wavelength.Picture a water wave frozen on the surface of a pond. The distance (verticaly) from the bottom of a trough to the top of a crest is the amplitude of that wave. A measure of the distance (horizontally) from the bottom of a trough to the top of a crest is half the wavelength of the wave. (Note that athe use of "bottom of a trough" and "top of a crest" might seem redundant or even nonsensical, but is applied here in the hopes of clarity.)
