The number of times a wave repeats itself is called?
frequency. which is measured in hertz (Hz) or per second (1/s)
The number of times a sign wave repeats in one second is called?
frequency
How are frequency and period related in waves?
Mathematically, frequency = (1/Period) Conceptually, the period is how long it takes a wave to begin repeating itself. For example, if I start a stopwatch when the wave reaches its peak, and then stop timing when it reaches its next peak, the time on the stopwatch is the period. The frequency is how far the wave gets in 1 second. Some examples: If it take a wave 30 seconds to go through one cycle, the period is 30 seconds. In 1 second, it gets only 1/30 of the way through its cycle. Its frequency is 1/30 then. If a wave repeats itself 10 times in 1 second, its frequency is 10. It's period must be 1/10 of a second.
What is usual period for sine?
Periodic functions are those functions for which the value of the dependent variable repeats itself for certain values of the dependent variable.example:F(x)=yx is the dependent variable (output of the function)y is the independent variable (input of the function)F(x1)=y1F(x2)=y1As you can see the value of the function is the same for two different values of the dependent variable.The smallest difference between any two dependent variables giving the same value of the function is the period of the function.The periodicity of the usual sine function is 2pi. This is how it works:F(X)=sin(X)sin(x1)=ysin(x2)=sin(x1+2pi)=ysin(x3)=sin(x1+4pi)=yThe smallest difference between any two independent variables (x1 or x2 or x3) is 2pi.This is also evident from the general sine curve (graphical representation). The sine function has a fixed range from -1 to 1 (i.e.,for sin(x)=y, y can only lie between -1 and 1). So, the interval (difference in values of the independent variable) after which the nature of the wave repeats is it's period. Look at the graph and you'll see that the wave replicates after covering 2pi from the current point.
What wave property affects the speed of a wave?
Both the wavelength and the frequency of a wave affect the speed of a wave.
What is the frequency of an AC sine wave that repeats itself 500 times in one fifth of a second?
2500 hz
The number of times a wave repeats itself is called?
frequency. which is measured in hertz (Hz) or per second (1/s)
What is a wave that repeats itself?
You really shouldn't be looking for the answer of a test or homework on the computer. But the answer is How often a wave occurs is the waves frequency.
Which term is defined as the time required to complete one up down motion of the wave cycle before it repeats itself?
Period
What is the definition of wavelenghth?
In physics, the wavelength of a sinusoidal wave is the spatial period of the wave-the distance over which the wave's shape repeats.
What does 49 mhz mean?
49 mhz means 49 megahertz, which is a measure of frequency in waves. What this mean is that the wave form repeats itself 49,000,000 times each second.
What do you call the motion of a wave?
A wave has cyclic motion - that is it repeats the motion many times, almost without variation.
The number of times a sign wave repeats in one second is called?
frequency
Is she wave sentence or fragment?
"She wave." is fragment but "She waves" is a sentence.
What is the term that describes the time interval during which wave motion repeats?
This is called the "period".
When A wave transfers energy true or false?
The answer is true. The greater the energy the greater the amplitude.
What is the Ditstice Between Crests?
The distance between crests( like in ocean waves) is referred to as it's wave length. Wave length also has direct effect on it's frequency, how often the wave repeats.
