The highest point of a transverse wave is known as the crest, while the lowest point is called the trough. When the crest of one wave strikes against the trough of another wave, the forces of energy working in opposite directions with cancel out the effects of each other.

Is the wave length measured from the crest to the trough true or false?
False. The wavelength of a wave is actually measured from crest to crest, or trough to trough, not from crest to trough.
How do you measure a transverse?
From crest to crest or trough to trough
The two main parts of a wave are the?
crest and trough. The crest is the highest point of a wave, while the trough is the lowest point.
How do you measure a transverse wavelength?
From crest to crest or trough to trough
The distance from crest to crest or trough to trough?
Is the wave length
What is the distance from the crest to crest or from trough to trough called?
wavelength
What part of a wave is the distance from crest to crest or trough to trough?
The distance from crest to crest or trough to trough is called the wavelength of a wave. It represents the distance over which the wave's shape repeats itself.
What is wavelength in scince?
The distance from a crest to a crest or a trough to a trough in a wave.
What is the measurement of a wave from crest to crest or trough to trough called?
The measurement of a wave from crest to crest or trough to trough is called the wavelength. It represents the distance between two consecutive points that are in phase with each other on a wave.
Is the wave length measured from the crest to the trough?
No, the wavelength is measured from crest to crest or trough to trough of a wave. It represents the distance between two consecutive points that are in phase along a wave.
What is a trough and a crest?
it has to do with waves. trough- is the bottom of the wave crest- is the top of the wave
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.
