Wavelength

/wˈe‍ɪvlɛŋθ/

/ˈweɪvˌɫɛŋθ/

Wavelength

the distance between a point on a wave of energy and a similar point on the next wave

a shared orientation leading to mutual understanding

Examples

1. We work together but we aren’t really on the same wavelength.

2. Luckily, my husband and I are on the same wavelength about how to raise our kids.

3. And so wavelength equals Planck's constant times the speed of light.

4. Lower energy, longer wavelength.
