A Brief History of Light ( by Efthymios Kallos) (edited by Mrs. John & Mr. Lefebvre) | The struggle to understand light | The main issue of the early theories of light was to resolve whether it was a wave or a particle‚ and this proved to be a difficult task. It started as a particle from the ancient Greeks‚ then it became a wave with Huygens‚ then Newton suggested a particle theory again‚ then Fresnel and others suggested a wave theory again‚ then Einstein suggested a particle theory once

Wave Nature of Light Objective: The purpose of this lab is to investigate interference‚ otherwise known as the diffraction of light. A beam of light acts a wave‚ and we are able to use equations so calculate the wavelength of the light used. The diffraction of a straight edge demonstrates that light waves bend around straight edges‚ allowing light to enter an area of shadow. When waves are superposed‚ they reinforce each other when crests are in phase and cancel out when they are not in phase

accelerating electrons through. As the electrons pass through the graphite‚ an interference pattern emerges on the screen in front of the gun. The interference pattern shows up as a circle within a circle‚ each of which represents a different interatomic spacing in the graphite lattice structure. As we increase the voltage of the potential difference in intervals of .5kV from 2.5kV to 4.5kV‚ the diameter of the interference pattern will decrease. We did this several times and found that the inter-atomic

In the area marked as Pattern 4 some interference has appeared. What type of interference is this‚ such as all-channel‚ co-channel‚ or adjacent-channel? The type of interference is the adjacent-channel interference. 9. On what channel has this interference appeared on? The interference has appeared on channel 4 or channel 5. 10. Is this interference weaker than‚ the same‚ or stronger than the signal that was there before it appeared? The interference takes place between 4 and 5 and has a

They act as hindrances to the natural functioning of the market‚ distort the existing equilibrium and spoil markets. Interference is therefore necessitated in order to stop interferences and restore the balance to the market. In this way‚ it is argued‚ the true meaning and spirit of the hadith is upheld. Muslim jurists have also accepted the possibility of interference in the market in these situations under the doctrine of necessity and public interest. Indeed the institution of hisbah19

Emotional Intelligence is a set of qualities and competencies that captures a broad collection of individual skills and dispositions‚ usually referred to as soft skills or inter and intra-personal skills‚ that are outside the traditional areas of specific knowledge‚ general intelligence‚ and technical or professional skills. Emotions are an intrinsic part of our biological makeup‚ and every morning they march into the office with us and influence our behavior. Emotional intelligence consists of five

1. Whenever your boss asks for feedback about an idea‚ she blasts anyone who criticizes the idea no matter how gently the news is broken to her. This defensive reaction has caused people to start agreeing with everything she says. You think that the situation is unhealthy for the company as well as for your boss. Therefore‚ despite the likelihood for her reacting defensively‚ you want to talk to her about it. List out some of the things you intend to say to her when you meet her the next day.
