Wavelength from phase speed and period ====================================== Wavelength is the spatial period of a periodic wave, i.e. the distance the wave needs to travel for its shape to repeat. It can also be measured as the distance between two closest points with the same wave phase. **Links:** #. `Wikipedia `__. .. py:currentmodule:: symplyphysics.laws.waves.wavelength_from_phase_speed_and_period .. py:data:: wavelength :attr:`~symplyphysics.symbols.classical_mechanics.wavelength` of the wave.
