      [Symbol W] - International unit of measurement for power. Conversion: 1 W = 1 VA.

    • wavelength (phys.)

      The distance between two neighbouring crests or troughs of an electromagnetic wave is referred to as a wavelength. By contrast, the time gap between two consecutive wave maxima or wave minima is termed the frequency.
      In a vacuum, the following always holds true: frequency * wavelength = speed of light. In other words, the longer the radiation wave, the lower its frequency, and vice-versa.
