Open in App
Solution
The correct option is B Wavelength
The wavelength is the distance between two successive crests or two successive troughs on a transverse wave. It is also equal to the distance between any two points where the particles are passing through their respective mean positions in the same direction. It is also the distance between two successive compressions or two successive rarefactions on a longitudinal wave. The SI unit of wavelength is metre (m).
