våglengder
Våglängder refers to the spatial period of a periodic wave—the distance over which the wave's shape repeats. It is commonly denoted by the Greek letter lambda (λ). Våglängder are typically measured in units of distance, such as meters, centimeters, or nanometers.
The concept of våglängder is fundamental in the study of waves, including sound waves, water waves, and
Different våglängder correspond to different types of electromagnetic radiation. For instance, visible light encompasses a range
In acoustics, våglängder are related to the pitch of sound. Higher-pitched sounds have shorter våglängder, while
