The distance between two adjacent crests of a wave motion For electromagnetic radiation, the product of frequency and wavelength is equal to the speed of light
The distance between successive wave crests or other equivalent points in a harmonic wave
The distance between two identical points on a waveform i e one cycle of the waveform, or the spatial distance between two identical points of an electromagnetic or sound pressure wave which have the same phase In high frequency waves, there are more cycles in a given unit of time than there are in low frequency waves, this means they are closer together and consequently the wavelength of a high frequency is shorter than that of a low frequency The wavelength of an given frequency can be determined by dividing the speed of propagation of the wave by its frequency For electromagnetic waves this is c/f, where c is the velocity of light and f is frequency, this gives a result in metres For sound pressure waves it is approximately 334 m/s divided by the frequency in Hz, so that audio frequencies have wavelengths in the range from 16 metres to 1 6 centimetres
the distance between adjacent peaks in a series of periodic waves Also see electromagnetic spectrum
The distance between successive peaks or troughs of a wave Wavelengths are equal to the speed of the wave divided by its frequency
The wavelength of a wave pattern is the distance from one wave crest to the next one All things that vary periodically have a wavelength associated with them, including light and other electromagnetic radiation, sound, AC electricity, spectral lines, and water waves
If two people are on the same wavelength, they find it easy to understand each other and they tend to agree, because they share similar interests or opinions. It's great to work with people who are on the same wavelength. Distance between corresponding points of two consecutive waves. "Corresponding points" refers to two points or particles that have completed identical fractions of their periodic motion. In transverse waves, wavelength is measured from crest to crest or from trough to trough. In longitudinal waves, it is measured from compression to compression or from rarefaction to rarefaction. Wavelength, , is equal to the speed v of a wave in a medium divided by its frequency f, or = v/f
A wavelength is the distance between a part of a wave of energy such as light or sound and the next similar part. Sunlight consists of different wavelengths of radiation
The distance between two corresponding points in a sound or electromagnetic wave
the distance (measured in the direction of propagation) between two points in the same phase in consecutive cycles of a wave
The distance between two successive peaks or troughs of a wave; for light, this uniquely specifies the energy and frequency of the light
The distance between to successive peaks of a periodic wave Wavelength is typically denoted by the Greek letter lambda
The distance, especially on an electromagnetic wave, that a wave travels in the time it takes to oscillate through a complete cycle Wavelengths of visible light are measured in nanometers or microns
The distance between successive peaks or troughs of a wave Smaller wavelengths correspond to higher energies Department of Physics and Astronomy East Lansing, MI, USA Last updated May 12, 1999 by David McCreery
The distance between successive points of equal amplitude and phase on a wave (for example, crest to crest or trough to trough)
The distance between two similar points of a given wave Wavelengths of light are measured in nanometers (1 nm = 1 billionth of a meter)
The length of a single cycle of a wave, as measured by the distance between one peak or trough of a wave and the next; it is often designated in physics as λ, and corresponds to the velocity of the wave divided by its frequency
