Distance Measured Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Distance Traveled = Velocity of Light wave*Time Taken/2
D = c*Δt/2
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Distance Traveled - (Measured in Meter) - Distance Traveled defines how much path an object has covered to reach its destination in a given period.
Velocity of Light wave - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Velocity of light wave is the ratio of distance travelled by the light wave through a medium to given time.
Time Taken - Time taken is the time taken for the wave to travel from one gate to the other.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Velocity of Light wave: 199 Meter per Second --> 199 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Time Taken: 0.5 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

D = c*Δt/2 --> 199*0.5/2

Evaluating ... ...

D = 49.75

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

49.75 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

49.75 Meter <-- Distance Traveled

Completion Time for given Distance of Path

Go Time Taken = 2*Distance Traveled/Velocity of Light wave

Velocity in Medium given Distance

Go Velocity of Light wave = 2*Distance Traveled/Time Taken

Distance Measured

Go Distance Traveled = Velocity of Light wave*Time Taken/2

Distance Measured Formula

Distance Traveled = Velocity of Light wave*Time Taken/2
D = c*Δt/2

What is EDM?

EDM is the Electromagnetic Distance Measurement. An EDM instrument performs the following basic functions:
1. The generation of carrier wave and measuring wave frequencies.
2. The modulation and demodulation of the carrier wave.
3. The measurement of the phase difference between the transmitted and received frequency waves.
4. The display, in some form, of the result of the measurement.

How to Calculate Distance Measured?

Distance Measured calculator uses Distance Traveled = Velocity of Light wave*Time Taken/2 to calculate the Distance Traveled, The Distance Measured formula is defined as it is computed from the velocity of the signal multiplied by the time it took to complete its path. Distance Traveled is denoted by D symbol.

How to calculate Distance Measured using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Distance Measured, enter Velocity of Light wave (c) & Time Taken (Δt) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Distance Measured calculation can be explained with given input values -> 49.75 = 199*0.5/2.

FAQ

What is Distance Measured?

The Distance Measured formula is defined as it is computed from the velocity of the signal multiplied by the time it took to complete its path and is represented as D = c*Δt/2 or Distance Traveled = Velocity of Light wave*Time Taken/2. Velocity of light wave is the ratio of distance travelled by the light wave through a medium to given time & Time taken is the time taken for the wave to travel from one gate to the other.

How to calculate Distance Measured?

The Distance Measured formula is defined as it is computed from the velocity of the signal multiplied by the time it took to complete its path is calculated using Distance Traveled = Velocity of Light wave*Time Taken/2. To calculate Distance Measured, you need Velocity of Light wave (c) & Time Taken (Δt). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Velocity of Light wave & Time Taken and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
