What are the characteristics of progressive waves?

A progressive wave is formed due to continuous vibration of the particles of the medium.
The wave travels with a certain velocity.
There is a flow of energy in the direction of the wave.
No particles in the medium are at rest.
The amplitude of all the particles is the same.

How to Calculate Zero-Crossing Period?

Zero-Crossing Period calculator uses Zero-Crossing Period = Record Length/Number of Zero-Upcrossings to calculate the Zero-Crossing Period, The Zero-Crossing Period formula is defined as the point where the sign of a mathematical function changes (e.g. from positive to negative), represented by an intercept of the axis (zero value) in the graph of the function. Zero-Crossing Period is denoted by T_Z symbol.

How to calculate Zero-Crossing Period using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Zero-Crossing Period, enter Record Length (T_r) & Number of Zero-Upcrossings (N_Z) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Zero-Crossing Period calculation can be explained with given input values -> 7 = 70/10.

FAQ

What is Zero-Crossing Period?

The Zero-Crossing Period formula is defined as the point where the sign of a mathematical function changes (e.g. from positive to negative), represented by an intercept of the axis (zero value) in the graph of the function and is represented as T_Z = T_r/N_Z or Zero-Crossing Period = Record Length/Number of Zero-Upcrossings. Record Length typically refers to the length of time over which data is collected or analyzed & Number of Zero-Upcrossings can be used to characterize the wave height distribution and provide insights into the energy spectrum of the waves.

How to calculate Zero-Crossing Period?
