To reduce drag, superluminal wave velocities were necessary, and they would still be subject to the heating problem.
Consequently, wavelength, period, and wave velocity are related just as for a traveling wave.
See dispersion for a full discussion of wave velocities.
The wave velocity helped his speed and in another few moments he stood atop the next crest but could see no farther.
If the seismic wave velocity in the rock is known, then the travel time may be used to estimate the depth to the reflector.
Group velocity is often considered to be the wave velocity at which information travels.
The dependence of wave velocity on frequency or wavelength:
Therefore, the wave velocity will decrease with added mass.
The boundary is observed via the discontinuity in seismic wave velocities at that depth.
Instead the change in the seismic wave velocity is caused by a metamorphic transition in the granite rock.
