wavelength (redirected from effective wavelength)

wave·length  (wvlngkth, -lngth, -lnth) n. Abbr. WL The distance between one peak or crest of a wave of light, heat, or other energy and the next corresponding peak or crest. Idiom: on the same wavelength Informal In complete accord; in harmony: "a fluid ... production in which author, director, designer and cast seem to be working on the same wavelength" (James Lardner).

wavelength [ˈweɪvˌlɛŋθ]

n

1. (Physics / General Physics) the distance, measured in the direction of propagation, between two points of the same phase in consecutive cycles of a wave. Symbol λ

wavelength  (wvlngkth)

The distance between one peak or crest of a wave and the next peak or crest. It is equal to the speed of the wave divided by its frequency, and to the speed of a wave times its period.
