Secondly‚ American feminists and

Before beginning our research on radio waves‚ to us‚ radio waves were just waves going through the atmosphere‚ carrying sound from one place to another. Those were our ignorant days! We did not realize the complicated terms and theories involved. In the following report you will see how we advanced in our knowledge of radio waves‚ and we hope it will do the same for you. Radio waves are a combination of two kinds of electric vibrations. Audio frequency waves‚ which represent voice and other

Radio Waves In the modern society‚ radio is the most widely used medium of broadcasting and electronic communication : it plays a major role in many areas such as public safety‚ industrial manufacturing‚ processing‚ agriculture‚ transportation‚ entertainment‚ national defense‚ space travel‚ overseas communication‚ news reporting and weather forecasting. In radio broadcasts‚ they use the radio waves which can be both microwaves and longer radio waves. These are transmitted in two ways: amplitude

Together with the spread of foreign language teaching and learning is the development of theories on second language acquisition. One of the main issues of these theories is the investigation into factors that can influence learners’ second language achievements. As a teacher of English‚ I find this an interesting issue as a good understanding of factors affecting learners’ achievements in second language acquisition can help me choose appropriate approaches and design suitable materials to facilitate

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

Comparing Feminism and Marxism‚ both claims that society is split into the powerful and the powerless. Although they are two different theories and criticism‚ founded upon different claims and needs‚ but they have many characteristics in common. One tries to condemn patriarchy‚ and care about women‚ especially those suffered of patriotic inequalities. The other theory rejects Capitalism. Believing that landlords and bourgeoisie have oppressed proletariat through the history‚ Marxism promises

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
