Which term is the space occupied by one cycle?
Correct Answer:
Wave length
Explanation:
The space occupied by one cycle is the wavelength—the spatial period of the wave. It’s the distance over which the wave pattern repeats, commonly measured as the distance between successive peaks (or troughs). In radar terms, wavelength is linked to frequency and propagation speed by lambda = v / f, and for electromagnetic waves v is the speed of light, so lambda = c / f. The other terms refer to different ideas: a cycle is one complete oscillation, bearing is the direction of travel, and range is the distance to a target.
