In physics, the wavelength of a sinusoidal wave is the spatial period of the waveâthe distance over which the wave's shape repeats, and the inverse of the spatial frequency.
The original âCave of the Windsâ was a cavern located behind the Bridal Veil Falls. The Bridal Veil Falls is the smaller waterfall located between Luna Island and Goat Island, beside the American Falls. The Cave of the Winds was an overhanging ledge, consisting of Lockport Dolostone rock, at the top portion of the gorge where the waters of the Bridal Veil Falls flowed over. Originally this portion projected more than 30.5 metres. Due to this overhang of rock, a cavern behind the cascading water was formed.
