Electromagnetic Waves It was once the great Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell (1831-1879) who had presented that electric and magnetic fields unstable together can form a spreading wave‚ appropriately called an electromagnetic wave. The properties of an electromagnetic wave are as follows: 1. They can travel through a vacuum at the same high speed‚ which is much faster than other types of waves that travel through a material. 2. They show the normal wave properties of reflection‚ refraction

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

Ocean Waves A wave is a periodic disturbance in space and time‚ possibly transferring energy to or through a space-time region. Have you ever ridden a wave in the ocean? Ocean waves travel on the surface of the water. You can see them and you can feel them. As you swim through the water‚ you can even make your own waves. The winds cause waves on the surface of the ocean (and on lakes). The wind transfers some of its energy to the water‚ through friction between the air molecules and the water molecules

order to present their experiences of Korean Wave‚ this paper will be divided into four sections. The first section will describe demographic characteristics of the Korean Wave group in Asia. The second section is a literature review refering to the cultural background of Korean Wave including Korean pop music‚ drama‚ food and so forth. This is followed by an interview conducted with Helen and Hana giving information about their experiences of Korean Wave. The final section will state some steretyping

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

SINE WAVE Sine wave: Sine wave is the most fundamental form in analog signal. When any communication process will be analog process then the data must be converting into analog signal & a sine wave is the common form of analog signal. A sine wave changes over a course of cycle which is constant and continuous. A sine wave represent in graphically where time in X axis & value in Y axis. [pic] Parameters; A sign wave have three parameter

Reputation is an idea that has many definitions‚ but it is mainly viewed as what you are known for or what people think of you. It consists of a foundation‚ reinforcing actions‚ and contradictory actions. Your foundation is created by the first impressions you have on your peers. After a few weeks your foundation will settle. From then on‚ it will remain unchanged. However‚ your overall reputation will still be acceptable to change from reinforcing actions and contradictory actions. Behaviour
