wavelength
wavelength 1. (λ) The distance on a
wave between successive points that are in
phase, e.g. for a water wave, the wavelength is the distance from one crest to the next. Wavelength is related to the velocity (
v) and frequency (
f) by: λ =
v/
f. The inverse of wavelength is
wavenumber.
2. Of a
fold system, the distance between one
hinge or
trough and the next. It is rarely possible, or necessary, to measure the wavelengths of folds precisely.
