Answer:

Wavelength

Explanation:

The distance between corresponding points of adjacent waves is known as the wavelength.

In a wave motion, the point at which displacement is at maximum is known as the crest of the wave while the point where the displacement is at minimum is known as the trough of the the wave.

The distance between these two successive crest and trough of he wave as known as its wavelength.

Wavelength can be expressed as a function of frequency and velocity of a wave.

Answer:

Wavelength

Explanation:

Wave properties are elements we can measure for ANY wave. These properties are: amplitude, wavelength, frequency, period, and velocity.

Wavelength is one way of measuring the size of waves. It is the distance between two corresponding points on adjacent waves, usually measured in meters. The wavelength of a transverse wave can be measured as the distance between two adjacent crests

How did the discovery of eris force astronomers to reconsider the definition of planet?

kogti [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

They had demoted Pluto on the basis of the discovery of Eris. They also discovered that Eris had a moon. It was thought to be much bigger than Pluto. That turned out not to be true. So having accepted Eris as a planet, they had to consider carefully what to do about Pluto. It has a gravitational constant of 0.82 m/s^2 which is 8.4% of that of our gravitational pull. and slightly more than Pluto.

Later data showed that these two objects in space were more like twins and that's what shook up the definition of a planet. You can't demote one and not the other.
