In physics, the wavelength of a sinusoidal wave is the spatial period of the waveâthe distance over which the wave's shape repeats,[1] and thus the inverse of the spatial frequency.
1) Î» is the Greek letter lambda and it stands for the wavelength of light. Wavelength is defined as the distance between two successive crests of a wave. When studying light, the most common units used for wavelength are: meter, centimeter, nanometer, and ÃngstrÃ¶m. Even though the offical unit used by SI is the meter, you will see explanations and problems which use the other three.
