Question

Which of the following is a definition of Wavelength? Select one: O a. The condition in which the inputs into a reservoir are equal to the outputs from the reservoir and so the size of the reservoir is not changing with time. O b. The distance between crests of a wave. (Units: meter) O c. The fraction of light that reaches an object that is passed through the object without being reflected or absorbed. O d. The energy used per unit time. e.The amount of deviation between an observation and the accepted normal value of that quantity O f. The fraction of light that reaches an object that is reflected. Og. The rate of energy transferred per unit area O h. The capacity to do work. O i. The fraction of light that reaches an object that is absorbed. J. The number of crests of a wave that passes in a unit time.(Units: cycles per second) O k. The radiation emitted by an ideal object that increases with the temperature of the object, and that is most intense at a wavelength that decreases with the temperature of the object. Radiation that is can travel as a wave through a vacuum and which carries energy with is as it travels. This type of radiation comes in a spectrum of wavelengths and includes radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays and gamma rays.

Explanation / Answer

Answer) Wavelength definition:- B. The distance between crusts of a wave (units: meter)

or it can be also stated as the minimum distance in which a sound wave repeats itself is called its wavelength. In most simple words, it is the length of one complete wave. The wave length is denoted by a Greek letter Lambda, . In a sound wave, the combined length of a compression and an adjacent rarefaction is called its wavelength. The SI unit of measuring wavelength is metre (m), centimetre unit is also used for expressing wavelength.
