Kinematic Derivation of the Wave Equation http://prism.texarkanacollege.edu/physicsjournal/wave-e... KINEMATIC DERIVATION OF THE HARMONIC WAVE EQUATION AND RELATED TOPICS An extremely important type of wave in physics is the harmonic wave. This is a wave consisting of propagating simple harmonic oscillations or linear combinations thereof. Attach a weight to a spring and hang the spring so the weight is free to move. Then lift the weight straight up and release it; it will oscillate up and down

Unit: Sinusoidal Waves Subject: Advanced Algebra/ Trigonometry Overarching Question: What are real life applications of Sinusoidal Waves? First and Foremost‚ Sinusoidal Waves are waves that can be described to have a sine curve‚ usually repetitive. Sine waves are a part of the mathematic topic‚ Trigonometry. However‚ these types of waves may be found in various other scenarios. For instance‚ many are found in nature‚ you just have to observe with care. This means to say that they aren’t just

INFRARED WAVES * Infrared (IR) light is electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength longer than that of visible light How They’re Made: Infra red waves are just below visible red light in the electromagnetic spectrum ("Infra" means "below"). You probably think of Infra-red waves as heat‚ because they’re given off by hot objects‚ and you can feel them as warmth on your skin. Infra Red waves are also given off by stars‚ lamps‚ flames and anything else that’s warm - including you. The detector

Electromagnetic Waves Although you might not know it you’re constantly surrounded by thousands of electromagnetic waves every day. Sunlight and x-rays are only two types of electromagnetic waves‚ other types are: radio wave‚ infrared rays‚ ultra-violet rays and gamma rays Nature of an electromagnetic wave Electric and magnetic fields are not made up of matter. An electromagnetic wave consists of an electric and magnetic field and doesn’t need a medium to exist. They are the regions through

Water Waves By Anna Introduction Water waves have been around for years; learning about water waves can help you understand the outside world. Water waves can be used in many ways‚ but they can also be harmful‚ too. When were they discovered? Water waves have been around since the creation of the earth‚ but Isaac Newton came up with a theory; after studying waves in about 1687. What is the biggest wave? In 1958 the biggest tsunami wave was recorded. How much harm can water waves really

Characteristics and Nature of Waves In physics‚ a wave is a disturbance that travels through space and time‚ usually accompanied by the transfer of energy. Waves travel and the wave motion transfers energy from one point to another‚ often with no permanent displacement of the particles of the medium—that is‚ with little or no associated mass transport. They consist‚ instead‚ of oscillations or vibrations around almost fixed locations. For example‚ a cork on rippling water will bob up and down

Seismic waves‚ which are waves of energy that travel through the earth‚ and are a result of an earthquake‚ explosion‚ or a volcano that imparts low-frequency acoustic energy. There are two types of seismic waves‚ Body waves and surface waves. Body waves travel through the interior of the earth. Surface waves travel along the earth’s surface and through water. Seismic wave fields are measured by a seismograph‚ geophone‚ hydrophone or accelerometer. These are used to measure earthquakes. When

Rogue Waves For centuries‚ mariners have spread stories about giant sudden waves which appeared out of nowhere without warning which were strong enough to capsize even the mightiest and largest ships. Several vessels—such as the S.S. Waratah‚ the M.S. Munchen‚ and the S.S. Edmund Fitzgerald—were all rumored to have been sunk by rogue waves (Walsh par. 3). Further‚ rogue waves have been blamed for ripping the bow off of a Norwegian freighter near the tip of South Africa in 1974‚ almost capsizing
