How are wave frequency and the period related?
They are inverses. Seconds and Hertz are inverse units.
How do you calculate the number of units sold?
How to calculate the number of units sold?
The number of units of volume in a figure is the number of which make up the figure?
cubed units
What is the Units Digit of 9 to the 21st?
The number in the units digit of the number 921 is 9.
Formula for velocity of a wave?
v=lambda*f v is velocity, lambda is wavelengt, f is frequency Units are m/s, meters, Hertz Or v=w/k v is velocity, w(supposed to be greek letter omega) is angular frequency, and k is the wave number Or If you want to get complicated the velocity of a wave can be seen in the wave equation. This requires partial derivatives, look into it for calculus based physics
What is the wave number of 5nm wave length?
(2pi)/5e-9 in units of rad/m
What happens when a wave amplitude interferes with another wave amplitude of the same frequency?
They could undergo constructive interference in which the amplitudes of the two waves combine. For example, a wave with an amplitude of 2 units overlaps with another wave with an amplitude of 2 units, the overlapping amplitude will be 4 units. They could also undergo destructive interference in which the amplitude of one wave is 2 units and the amplitude of the second wave is -2 units. At the point where they meet, the combined amplitude will be zero.
What is the wavelength of 1.010 to the fifteenth power?
That number has no units, and just-plain-numbers don't have wavelengths. If you mean that number to have the unit of "Hertz", and to be a frequency of, say, an electromagnetic wave in vacuum, then it's wavelength would be 296.8 nanometers ... an ultraviolet wave.
What units of measurement does a spectrometer use?
A spectrometer measures the wavelength, wave number, and photon energy of light. They are measurements of the type and energy levels of light.
The wavelenght of a wave is the distace between?
it is a distance between repeating units of a propagating wave of a given frequency..
What is the definition of wavelength in units?
the distance between two consecutive compressions or rarefactions of a light wave is called its wavelength.
Amplitude is the speed of the wave?
No. Aplitude is the height of the wave. Frequency and wavelength can be used to calculate the speed of the wave by multiplying them together (if the units are appropriate).
What do you measure using units called hertz?
wave frequency.
What units are made to measure speed of wave?
Meters and secound
What is a property of wave that is measured in units called decibels?
abriviation
When changing from smaller to larger units the number of units will?
The number of units will decrease and if it is going from largest to smallest the number of units will increase.
The number of units of volume in a figure is the number of?
cubed units
