Why is the narrorer the wave group, the greater the range of wavelengths involved?
asdf1 said:so you mean that the smaller the amount of waves, the less they interfere with each other, so the bigger the range of wavelengths?
Wave group size affects wavelength range because as the number of waves in a group increases, the distance between each wave decreases. This results in a shorter wavelength range.
The size of a wave group directly impacts the wavelength of the waves. A larger wave group will have a shorter wavelength, while a smaller wave group will have a longer wavelength.
The relationship between wave group size and wavelength range is inverse. As the wave group size increases, the wavelength range decreases, and vice versa.
Shorter wavelengths have a higher frequency because the distance between each wave is shorter, resulting in a higher number of waves passing through a given point in a specific amount of time.
The wavelength range has a direct impact on the energy of a wave group. A shorter wavelength range means a higher concentration of energy, while a longer wavelength range means a lower concentration of energy.
