around a barrier or through an opening. The amount of diffraction a wave experiences depends on two factors: the wavelength of the wave and the size of the barrier or opening the wave encounters. Sound travels around corners because it has relatively larger wavelengths than light. We can hear sounds around corners. We can’t see around corners because light has a very small wavelength. Interference is the result of two or more waves overlapping. Waves can meet‚ share the same space‚ and pass through

spring constant x is the displacement In this lab‚ we would have to know about the Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM). T is the period m is the mass k is the spring constant The characteristics of a wave are wavelength‚ amplitude‚ period and frequency. Wavelength is the length of the repeating wave shape. Amplitude is the maximum displacement or the greatest distance from the equilibrium point. Period is the time‚ in seconds‚ required to complete one cycle‚ and frequency is the number

wavelength — the distance between the crests of the waves — or its frequency — the number of crests that pass by in a given amount of time.The higher the energy of the radiation‚ the shorter its wavelength and the higher its frequency will be. Blue light‚ for example‚ has a higher energy and therefore a higher frequency and shorter wavelength than red light Flame tests are used to identify the presence of a relatively small number of metal ions in a compound. Not all metal ions give flame colours

chlorophyll‚ a light absorbing pigment that in different variations absorbs different wavelengths of light‚ as well as other light absorbing pigments like carotenoids and hydrocarbons (Campbell‚ 2008). Chlorophyll a and b along with carotenoids each have a different absorption spectrum that allows them to process a different wavelength of light for photosynthesis (Wiles‚ 2013). In this experiment we tested varying wavelengths of light to see which would cause photosynthesis to occur to the greatest degree

household microwave ovens to ones as large as aircraft hangars. The size of the chamber depends on the size of the objects to be tested and the frequency range of the signals used‚ although scale models can sometimes be used by testing at shorter wavelengths. ------------------------------------------------- Acoustic anechoic chambers Anechoic chambers are commonly used in acoustics to conduct experiments in nominally "free field" conditions. All sound energy will be traveling away from the source

Standing wave Standing waves in a string — the fundamental mode and the first 6 overtones. A standing wave‚ also known as a stationary wave‚ is a wave that remains in a constant position. This phenomenon can occur because the medium is moving in the opposite direction to the wave‚ or it can arise in a stationary medium as a result of interference between two waves traveling in opposite directions. In the second case‚ for waves of equal amplitude travelling in opposing directions‚ there is on

Color sells products. It is a powerful marketing tool that significantly influences consumer purchases‚ so much so that it accounts for 85% of the reason why someone decides to purchase a product (Hemphill 275). Marketers must understand the psychology of color in order to employ it effectively. Colors possess the ability to take an action and influence human behavior and emotion‚ and when properly used can be a vital tool in a successful marketing scheme. Crowley found that a physiologically

Ideas about the solar system Our understanding of the solar system has changed over many centuries. Scientists such as Ptolemy‚ Copernicus and Galileo added their ideas to our changing understanding. We observe the universe using a variety of equipment‚ from telescopes to orbiters and landers. Models of the solar system The planets and the Sun orbit the Earth in Ptolemy’s model. Our understanding of the universe has changed over time. Different civilisations have created different models to
