Listen fool I have worked with radio engineers at a real radio telescope. 
They would be insulted if anyone called their medium 'light'.

Quantum mechanics says all measurement is uncertain.
The uncertainty principle shows that all measurement is inaccurate
even about accuracy.

Sure it does, and you have said so yourself (apparently without

There is the frequency of the wave, clear as day: w.

     [Ignore the mildly unusual notation; most writers use
      f for frequency and w for 2pif.]

As I have said before, you merely rely on unusual meanings of words and

Oh dear, Tommy simply refuses to learn. 
The dependent variabLe is AMPLITUDE (or intensity). Your above equations 
describe how the amplitude of E and B fields vary AT A FIXED value of 
l...as the 'frozen' wave moves past.
The wave shape DOES NOT OSCILLATE. it just moves past the point l and 
generates a 'frequency' that for radio or ocean waves, can be easily 
detected.

Interestingly, for a radio signal, f and  are known. f is the AC frequency 
and/or the wave emission rate and λ = c/f, determined at the source (by the 
first cycle, say). Light does not have a known equivalent of an AC signal 
but it has a measureable wavelength and has been given a hypothetical 
frequency for no reason other than the fact that it appears to move at the 
same speed as radio.

No Tommy, I rely on pure Pkysics and the correct meaning of the TWE.... so 
try to do your homework properly, like a good boy.

What is "pure physics" and provide an example as well as compare that
to all other kinds of physics.

Established physics as distinct from Tommy's imaginary version. Being a non 
scientist, you probably don't understand what that implies ...or really 
care.

As the name suggests, the 'traveling wave equation' describes a sine wave 
that moves (horizontally, say). it does not change in any way as it moves.
As it passes a point, (a fixed value of x, in the equation) its amplitudde 
varies sinusoidally.

That is the basis of radio broadcasting and the reason why a bouy goes up 
and down as waves pass it. It seems that Tommy, who constantly advises 
other people to learn some basic physics, knows very little himself.

You keep attacking like there's no tomorrow. Guess what, I am engaged in
this conversation and asked a question based on what you wrote because I
do care and I don't know who the fuck you think you are with the sort of
response you made here. You used "pure physics" as though it were a
distinct field of study and now you have no rational reply in keeping
with what you wrote earlier. Get a grip, if you are able to. Your
behavior in recent times leaves the rational reader wondering what is
wrong with you.

It might behoove you to learn and understand what the term "scientist"
is. By definition, I am a scientist. I will go further and say that I am
not a professional scientist, but then those are in short supply in
these parts and based on your treatment of the subject matter you're
certainly no professional scientist, unless you're willing to admit that
you are in a very low percentile of that realm. You've had numerous
opportunities to explain what you mean when you use certain terms,
especially "frequency" and you have several times failed to define the
terms you are using in any way that could lead to meaningful
conversations. And here we are still attempting to have a discussion
with a party (you) who is thus far reticent to rationality. (I realize
and appreciate the oddness of that construct.)

Here you use a description that has no meaning, "horizontal." Compared
to???? Actually no matter. Any direction is fine.

You say here that a sine wave is created. Now please explain clearly in
physical terms what comprises this sine wave? Is it a string of atoms,
of ions, of photons, of WHAT?

This is a freshman year high school general science caliber of
explanation so far. Because you fail to provide enough detail it is just
a failed model that only partially explains what a radio wave is like,
in other words, a hamburger bun with no meat. Where's the beef?

It seems to me, a non-professional seeker of the same truth you profess
to love, that there's a significant dearth of real(tm) understanding in
these parts.

Please explain to me what the sine wave you are talking about above is
composed of and what makes whatever that is maintain its shape as it
travels through space passing by charged and neutral particles and
crosses paths with other sinusoidal type of radio waved without any
alteration in its shape.

That's another matter entirely, It has no bearing on this at all even 
though I agree it is very important. The fact that the wave diverges 
continuously is also relevant but it does not affect the intelligence 
carried by a radio signal. If a radio signal oscillated it would lose its 
detail.

So the short answer is you do not know what the "sine wave" is made of.

Without that information all the rest is a "partial model" with no
significant import. What exactly does the "sine wave model" predict?

The spin gives them a possible intrinsic oscillation...which they would not 
otherwise have. If you think they do have another, please define it.

The frequency of at the receiver is how many arrows hit him per second.

    Arrows fired without spinning:
    When we shoot arrows without spinning from a machine gun, we launch
ten arrows every second. Imagine you have a toy that pops out of a box
ten times in one second. We can say the arrows come out with a frequency
of 10 times per second. So, the frequency of the arrows is 10.

    Spinning arrows fired:
    Now, let's imagine we fire spinning arrows from the machine gun.
Again, we shoot ten arrows every second, but these arrows are spinning
as they fly through the air. When something spins, it goes around in
circles. So, it's like the spinning arrows are going around in circles
while they move forward. If you have a toy car with wheels that spin
around two times in one second, you can say the car has a spinning
frequency of 2 times per second. Similarly, the spinning arrows have a
spinning frequency of 2.

Now, regarding the line of arrows itself, we can say that the line
doesn't have a frequency of its own. The frequency refers to how many
times something happens in a given amount of time. It's about the
individual arrows and how often they appear or spin, but not about the
entire line as a whole.

To summarize:

    Arrows fired without spinning: The arrows come out with a frequency
of 10 times per second.
    Spinning arrows fired: The spinning arrows have a spinning frequency
of 2 times per second.
    The line of arrows itself doesn't have a frequency.

Why would it differ? Rotation is absolute and frame independent.

As a "scientist" you are supposed to know you have to precisely
define your terms. So why haven't you? Probably because you are
no scientist. But like a madwoman you do give good screech.

=========================================================================
1
: the fact or condition of occurring frequently
the frequency of automobile accidents
2
a
: the number of times that a periodic function repeats the same sequence 
of values during a unit variation of the independent variable
b
: the number, proportion, or percentage of items in a particular 
category in a set of data
3
: the number of repetitions of a periodic process in a unit of time: such as
a
: the number of complete alternations (see ALTERNATION sense 1) per 
second of an alternating current
b
: the number of complete oscillations (see OSCILLATION sense 3) per 
second of energy (such as sound or electromagnetic radiation) in the 
form of waves

Yes it is wrong like everyone else since radio engineers introduced the 
terminology.

    Golf balls fired without spinning:
    When we fire the golf balls without any spinning, we shoot ten balls
every second. 
So, if you imagine a clock ticking, it's like the golf balls are going
around the clock ten times in one second. We say the frequency of the
golf balls is 10 times per second, or 10 Hz.

    Golf balls fired with spinning at 20 revolutions per second (rps):
    Now, let's imagine the golf balls are spinning as they fly out of
the machine gun. We still shoot ten balls every second, but because of
the spinning, each ball 
goes around in a circle not once, but twice during that time. So, if you
think about the clock again, it's like the golf balls are going around
the clock two times in one second. 
This means the frequency of the golf balls, with the spinning, is 2
times per second, or 2 Hz.

To summarize:

    Golf balls fired without spinning: The golf balls go around the
clock 10 times in one second, so the frequency is 10 times per second
(10 Hz).
    Golf balls fired with spinning at 20 rps: The golf balls go around
the clock 2 times in one second because of the spinning, so the
frequency is 2 times per second (2 Hz).
