Key Terminology
-
Exahertz (EHz)
-
An SI-derived frequency unit equal to 10^18 hertz, representing extremely high-frequency electromagnetic waves such as soft X-rays.
-
Wavelength in dekametres
-
The spatial period of a wave expressed in dekametres, where one dekametre equals ten metres; it describes the distance between repeating points of the wave.
