Respuesta :
The highest point of a wave is called the crest. ... Wave height is the vertical distance between the crest and trough. Wavelength is the horizontal distance between waves in a series. Wavelength can be measured between two wave crests.
Answer:
Wavelength
Explanation:
A wave in general, is a disturbance that travels through a point in space. It is composed of a series of alternating peaks and valleys.
Peaks are points along the wave, where its amplitude or displacement from the rest position is maximum in a positive upward direction. These peaks are also referred to as 'crests'. Valleys or 'troughs' are points with maximum displacement in the negative downward direction.
In a water wave (or waves in general), the distance between two crests or peaks is referred to as the wavelength represented by the greek symbol, λ.
