What is a way to describe the wavelength of a wave?
The wavelength is the distance from crest to crest, or trough to trough, of a cyclic wave. It can be calculated from the number of waves within a unit length, and is the inverse of the frequency, which represents the number of waves for a unit time (usually waves/second or Hertz).
The distance between two consecutive crests on a wave?
The distance between consecutive crests is called the "wavelength".
Is amplitude the number of motions that occur in a given time?
The amplitude of a wave is the height of a wave crest or the depth of a wave trough from the rest position.
What is the distance from the rest position in a wave to the crest or trough?
Let us look at a cosine wave, described by y = A cos (b). When b = 0 degrees, y = A (<-- peak) When b = 90 degrees, y = 0 (<-- rest position of the wave) When b = 180 degrees, y = -A (<-- trough) When b = 270 degrees, y=0 (<-- rest position again) and so on. If we force A to be a function of time, then the wave becomes a standing wave (see the related link). The peak and trough will reverse their relative position for every half of a period. Regardless, the trough at any time and the rest position is still 90 degrees, or one quarter of a wavelength. ====================================
Do the two terms wave speed and wave frequency refer to the same thing?
No, frequency is the function of peak/trough pairs per unit time. Speed is the measure of how long it takes to travel a given distance.
What is Peak and Trough in relation to Antibiotic Therapy?
Peak and trough are methods used to establish the effectiveness of a drug. Peak is drawing the serum blood levels after the drug is administered as it distributes rapidly and reaches its peak in therapeutic range. Trough is drawing the serum blood levels right before the next dose. Trough is the lowest drug level that is needed to reach therapeutic range. If trough is > than normal, the patient is at risk for adverse effects. Therefore, the doctor should expand the time interval before ordering the next dose or decrease drug dose. In general, a trough is usually drawn one hour prior to start infusion and the peak about one hour after the infusion finished. The are times when the physician orders the trough drawn immediately prior to an infusion (ie Vancomycin).
What is a trough that lasts a long time called?
A very old trough. A hard-wearing trough. A durable trough. One tough trough.

How do you get your horse to drink from your water trough?
Well we always bring our horses to the water trough and pick the water up to the horses mouth, and most of the time after that they all just come and drink from the trough. Hope that helps =)
Why was exodus written?
to pass the history of that time trough generations to come.

What time is the transit of venus 2012?
From 3:05 trough sunset , about 7 hours
What is the minimum infusion time for vancomycin?
1 g in one hour 1.5 g in 90 to 180 minutes 2.0 g in 180 to 200 minutes
How many vials of blood can be drawn from one person at one time?
Forty two (42) vials of blood may be drawn at one time.
What is the time difference when traveling trough the eastern hemisphere?
It depends on what country are you starting from and what country are you going to.
What does the doctor mean when he refers to a morning trough level?
Certain medications have different concentrations in the blood depending on the time of day. A morning trough level means that the medication has the lowest blood concentration in the morning and the doctor wants to see what that level is at that point in time.
