Wavelength vs Microhertz - What's the difference?

wavelength | microhertz | Related terms |

As nouns the difference between wavelength and microhertz

is that wavelength is the length of a single cycle of a wave, as measured by the distance between one peak or trough of a wave and the next; it is often designated in physics as λ, and corresponds to the velocity of the wave divided by its frequency while microhertz is a unit of frequency equal to one millionth of a hertz.
