Wavelength

on . Posted in Electrical Engineering

wavelengthWavelength, abbreviated as \(\lambda\) (Greek symbol \lambda), is the distance between the crests of a wave.  Each wave has a shape and length.

 

Wavelength formula

\(\large{ \lambda = \frac{ v_w }{ f }    }\) 
Symbol English Metric
\(\large{ \lambda }\)  (Greek symbol \lambda) = wavelength \(\large{ft}\) \(\large{m}\)
\(\large{ f }\) = frequency \(\large{Hz}\) \(\large{Hz}\)
\(\large{ v_w }\) = wavelength velocity \(\large{\frac{ft}{sec}}\) \(\large{\frac{m}{sec}}\)
