Introduction
The wavelength of a sinusoidal wave is the spatial period of the
wave—the distance over which the wave's shape repeats.
Pre-Requisites:
WAVELENGTH
Activity:
The wavelength of visible light ranges from deep red, roughly
700 nm, to violet, roughly 400 nm
Real Life Question:
What is wavelength?
