-Wavelength
A) distance from the crest of one wave to the crest of the next.
B) length of audio
C) length related to music duration
D) none of the above

Accepted Answer

Wavelength refers to the distance between two consecutive points of similar phase in a wave, such as from crest to crest or trough to trough, which is accurately described in option A.

Question 15

What does these terms refer to:
-Wave number
A) number of wave per unit
B) number of recording console
C) number sound intensity
D) none of the above

Accepted Answer

Wave number refers to the number of waves per unit length, often used in physics to describe the spatial frequency of a wave.
