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

Although applauded for fighting for the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment‚ the first wave of the Women’s Movement focused their efforts on more than the right to vote. During the time period within which the Women’s Movement took place‚ women had little to no power in nearly all aspects of life. From having a voice in government to having a voice in their own home‚ women were not regarded with respect and did not have many rights in the eyes of the government. First addressed by Elizabeth Cady

Electromagnetic waves in space See the book “Optics” by Hecht sections 3.2 and 3.3 Speed of light: EM waves travel in a vacuum with speed c = c = 299‚792‚458 ms-1 exactly They are transverse waves with (vector) E and B field orthogonal to each other‚ for this section bold indicates vector quanties. When far from the source (many wavelengths) the E and B fields are in phase The vector E x B points in the direction of motion Travelling waves can be written as E = E 0 ⋅ ei ( kx −ωt ) and B = B 0 ⋅ ei

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
