Author Rick Yancey‚ published on May 8‚ 2013‚ The 5th Wave. This novel occurred in present-day Dayton‚ Ohio. The 5th Wave is a novel about a sixteen-year-old named Cassiopeia “Cassie” Sullivan that tries to survive an alien invasion. The aliens‚ also known as the Others‚ attacked in five waves. The first wave was when the alien spaceship sent an electromagnetic pulse that caused all the electricity and technology to be shorted out. The second wave caused a tsunami that was heading towards Cassie and

Longitudinal and transverse waves Sound is transmitted through gases‚ plasma‚ and liquids as longitudinal waves‚ also called compression waves. Through solids‚ however‚ it can be transmitted as both longitudinal waves and transverse waves. Longitudinal sound waves are waves of alternating pressure deviations from the equilibrium pressure‚ causing local regions of compression and rarefaction‚ while transverse waves are waves of alternating shear stress at right angle to the direction of propagation

people don’t question the things that are obvious to us. The things we see‚ how do we see it? What makes it visible to us? Is it only because we have eyes‚ or is there another factor. The great Aristotle explained it by having something in our eyes that emits “something” to an object and that’s why things are visible to us. Another question we could ask from our daily life is that how come we can hear? What is it that we hear? Why do we hear it and deaf people don’t? How do we receive any sound? People

Radio waves for Communication Radio waves are electromagnetic waves with wavelengths larger than the infrared light. Like all other electromagnetic waves‚ they travel at the speed of light. The wavelengths can vary from the size of a football field to the size of a football. They can be produced naturally by large stars and by lightning. Man-made radio waves are used for transmitting signals and currents. Specific Properties of Radio Frequency (RF) Current Radio frequency is the frequency of radio

which different frequencies are analyzed with different resolutions. A wave is an oscillating function of time or space and is periodic. In contrast‚ wavelets are localized waves. They have their energy concentrated in time or space and are suited to analysis of transient signals. While Fourier Transform and STFT use waves to analyze signals‚ the Wavelet Transform uses wavelets of finite energy.

Namee: Paul G. Zamora (Homework in Performance Techniques) Sound Waves- A sound wave is the pattern of disturbance caused by the movement of energy traveling through a medium (such as air‚ water‚ or any other liquid or solid matter) as it propagates away from the source of the sound. The source is some object that causes a vibration‚ such as a ringing telephone‚ or a person’s vocal chords. The vibration disturbs the particles in the surrounding medium; those particles disturb those next to them
