Sound Wavelength Calculator

Along the propagation direction of the wave, the distance between two adjacent particles of the same phase is called "wavelength". It refers to the distance between any two particles with a phase difference of 2π in the wave medium. For example, in a longitudinal wave, the distance between the centers of two adjacent sparse parts or the distance between the centers of two adjacent dense parts is also equal to the wavelength. In a transverse wave, the distance between two troughs or the distance between two peaks is also equal to the wavelength. From the definition of wave velocity and wavelength, we can know that: in one cycle of particle vibration, the distance of vibration state propagation is exactly one wavelength, so λ=v/f, or λ=vT. It can be seen from the above formula that the wave velocity of the same frequency in different media is different, so the wavelength is also different. In the formula, λ represents the wavelength. Wavelength, wave velocity and wave source vibration frequency are called the three elements of the wave.
