Waves

The spectroscopy lab centralized on the properties of waves and they relate to the emission spectrum, however one must understand the Bohr model of the atom first. The Bohr model for the atom depicts a planetary like structure, with a positively charged nucleus in the center with small, negatively charged electrons rotating around in specific, fixed orbits at different distances from the nucleus. When an electron transitions from a higher orbital, where it is in its excited state, back down to a

It is widely known that the rogue wave (freak wave, killer wave, and Peregrine solitons) is a kind of wave with a singular, rare, and high amplitude, which causes a dramatic impact on living life. Generally speaking, the rogue waves usually have deep holes and high crest, and the deep holes occur before and after the large crest. It has been pointed out that the freak waves have been a part of marine folklore for centuries by Lawton. (-- removed HTML --) (-- removed HTML --) 1 (-- removed HTML --)

strolling out to the vast void of nothingness, when my mom exclaimed at me, "Billy, the wave is coming.... Come inside now!" I shouted in despair, "Ok, mom I'm coming!" I rushed as fast as I could, but as I was exploring my own mind, I didn't really know how far I had journeyed. I thought to myself, how much time I had, I wasn't in harm's way. So, I just stood there, staring at the exquisite "Black Wave of Death" well, that's what I like to call it. I stood there, as if nothing were wrong.

Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time and The Wave, contain two main characters under pressure to make decisions neither one felt was right. In The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time, Christopher decided to leave his unintentionally abusive father and live with his mother in London. And in The Wave, Laurie, a senior at Gordon High, decided not to perform the inhumane tasks which being part of a popular group, called The Wave, required of its members, despite the threat of iron-fisted

what is meant by the terms short-wave and long-wave energy. B) Name a specific type of electromagnetic energy for each type. C) Correctly identify which is associate with the energy emitted from the Sun and the Earth. Short wave energy is high energy wavelengths that move quickly and almost look like scribbles. Longwave energy is energy wavelengths that are more like rolling hills, they are very low in energy. A specific type of electromagnetic energy for short waves is visible light, it can also be

energy that can be both more helpful and more dangerous; shock waves. These waves surround us, yet we have only just began to explore their many uses. Shock waves can be used by animals and humans for both utility and offense. Shock waves, also called

signal) is produced when radio stations broadcast. A radio wave (radiating electric field) propagates out from the

I chose, Simple Wave Simulator, covers the ideas of what the properties of a simple wave are. This simulator enables the student to choose whether they want to make a rope wave, simulating a transverse wave, or a longitudinal wave, which simulates a sound wave. The student is also able to change certain properties of the wave, such as frequency, amplitude, and the speed at which the wave is traveling. While using the simulator, students are able to track data such as values of wave speed, frequency

The Importance of Birds in Virginia Woolf's The Waves      To emphasize her viewpoint in The Waves, Woolf employs a distinctive style.  She interlocks the dramatic monologues of six characters at successive stages in their lives to tell her story; and prefaces each of the sections with a descriptive passage of sun and waves through a single day.  In these passages descriptions of the sun, the sea, the plants, and the birds make implicit comparisons with the characters' speeches.  The actions

ii. Experiment 7 The first part of this experiment involved calculating the wave speed of traveling waves on a string that was bounded on both sides (i.e. one side bounded by a clamp, and the other by a pulley) for three different tensions being applied. The wave speed was calculated using two different methods: 1. By calculating the tension that was being applied to the string, T=(m_1+m_2 )g, where m_1 is the mass of the hanging weight, and m_2 is the mass of the portion of the string hanging
