WHAT IS THE MINIMUM DISTANCE BETWEEN ANY TWO CORRESPONDING POINTS ON A WAVE THAT ARE THE SAME STAGE IN THE CYCLE?
The wavelength (denoted by Greek letter Lambda) is the minimum distance between any two corresponding points on a wave that are in the same stage of the cycle. This distance is usually measured from peak to peak (crest to crest or trough to trough). Wavelength is a distance and is usually measured in meters.
How do you find the height?
The answer depends on the height of what? The method required for a person, a building, a mountain peak, a cloud would be different.
What does peak mean in math?
the peak
What is 'non-coincident peak demand' in an electrical system?
Non-Coincident Peak (NCP) is the individual or actual peak demands of each load in an electrical system oftentimes occurring at different hours of the day. It does not necessarily fall during system peak. (This is what i understood about NCP...I gladly welcome corrections)
What is the amount of space between two points?
Amount of space between two Points
Which type of electromagnetic wave will be emitted by a cooler object?
The type of electromagnetic waves that will be emitted by a cooler object are waves with long wavelengths. The wavelength of peak emission is determined by Wien's Law.
What is important about the peak wavelength of a thermal radiation spectrum?
The peak wavelength, is connected to the temperature of the objects. we have short peak wavelength when the temperature is high.
What is the peak to peak distance of a wave?
The wavelength.
What is the peak to peak distance of wave?
The wavelength.
How do you label a wavelength?
you label a wavelength with amplitude, wavelength, through, and peak.
What are the four parts of a wavelength?
the four parts of a wavelength are the peak, trough, wavelength, and the amplitude.
What is described by the wavelength of wave?
The distance from on peak to the next peak
Describe two ways in which the thermal radiation spectrum of an 8000 K star would differ from that of a 4000 K star?
First, the energy emitted at every wavelength is higher for the hotter star. Secondly, the peak wavelength of the hotter star is shorter than that of the 4000K one.
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.
What is meant by the term wavelength?
Wavelength is the distance between the crests in waves. It is also the distance between one peak of a wave to the next corresponding peak.
What is the peak wavelength of radiation?
This question has a real subtlety in it. The simplest answer is given by Wein's Law, sometimes called Wein's Displacement Law: The peak of the spectrum for any "blackbody" (this works approximately for stars and people, basically any opaque object). Wavelength of peak emission = (Stefan's constant, which you can look up) x 0.0029meter / temperature in Kelvins. According to this formula, the peak is in the green part of the spectrum. But a lot of light is given off across the visual part of the spectrum so it looks whitish to me. Here's the subtlety that few people realize. This all works only when you plot the spectrum as the emission per unit wavelength. You can also plot the emission per unit frequency. Then the peak is at a different location!
The distance between one crest or peak of a sound wave and the next crest or peak?
Wavelength
