Wave per unit distance (typically per meter), can be associated with the wavelength by the relation The period formula_33 is the time for one complete cycle of an oscillation of a wave. The frequency formula_34 is the number of periods per unit time (per second) and is typically measured in hertz denoted as Hz. These are related by: In other words, the frequency and period of a wave are reciprocals. The angular frequency formula_28 represents the frequency in radians per second. It is related to the frequency or period by The wavelength formula_30 of a sinusoidal waveform traveling at constant speed
Blast wave a high pressure zone that extends from the ground up to a certain point called the triple point at the edge of the blast wave. Anything in this area experiences peak pressures that can be several times higher than the peak pressure of the original shock front. In physics, interference is the meeting of two correlated waves and either increasing or lowering the net amplitude, depending on whether it is constructive or destructive interference. If a crest of a wave meets a crest of another wave at the same point then the crests interfere constructively and the resultant crest wave
