Wavelength, distance between corresponding points of two consecutive waves.
Or:
· the distance between successive crests of a wave, especially points in a sound wave or electromagnetic wave.

I assume that we’re talking about physics, so allow me to explain.

Wavelengths are the distance between two crest (or trough) in a wave. It is usually measured between two easily identifiable points, like two adjacent crests in a waveform.

Vocabulary:

Crest - the highest point in a wave

Trough - the lowest point in a wave


Hope this helps you out!

What is folk remedies
mario62 [17]

A "folk" remedy is something you choose to eat, take, or do,
in order to correct some health issue, because your friend,
your grandmother, your religion, your shaman, your astrologer,
or your medicine man says that it's the right thing to do. 

It may or may not be effective, and it may or may not even be
safe.  What distinguishes it from mainstream medicine is that
its practices are based on hearsay, and have not been subjected
to scientific methods of investigation and evaluation.

Many industries are powered via distant power stations. Calculate the current flowing through a 7,300m long 10. copper power lin
Oliga [24]

Answer:

Current, I = 1000 A

Explanation:

It is given that,

Length of the copper wire, l = 7300 m

Resistance of copper line, R = 10 ohms

Magnetic field, B = 0.1 T

\mu_o=4\pi \times 10^{-7}\ T-m/A

Resistivity, \rho=1.72\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega-m

We need to find the current flowing the copper wire. Firstly, we need to find the radius of he power line using physical dimensions as :

R=\rho \dfrac{l}{A}

R=\rho \dfrac{l}{\pi r^2}

r=\sqrt{\dfrac{\rho l}{R\pi}}

r=\sqrt{\dfrac{1.72\times 10^{-8}\times 7300}{10\pi}}

r = 0.00199 m

or

r=1.99\times 10^{-3}\ m=2\times 10^{-3}\ m

The magnetic field on a current carrying wire is given by :

B=\dfrac{\mu_o I}{2\pi r}

I=\dfrac{2\pi rB}{\mu_o}

I=\dfrac{2\pi \times 0.1\times 2\times 10^{-3}}{4\pi \times 10^{-7}}

I = 1000 A

So, the current of 1000 A is flowing through the copper wire. Hence, this is the required solution.
