Waves
Karten in diesem Stapel (14)
- 1WavePropagation of a disturbance which transfers energy from one point in space to another without the physical transfer of matter
- 2FrequencyNumber of complete cycles performed by a particle per unit time
- 3WavefrontLocus or imaginary line joining all points of the wave that have the same phase
- 4Phase (Ф)Angular measure of the fraction of a cycle that has been completed by an oscillating mass
- 5Phase differenceMeasure of how much a wave is out of step with another wave and how much 2 particles in the same wave are out of step with each other
- 6Progressive waveNet transfer of energy from one place to another
- 7Stationary waveNo net transfer of energy/energy propagation
- 8Mechanical waveRequires a mechanical medium to pass through
- 9Electromagnetic wavesDoes not require medium to propagate (3x108)
- 10Transverse waveWaves oscillates in direction perpendicular to direction of propagation of energy
- 11Longitudinal waveWaves oscillates in direction parallel to direction of propagation of the waveform
- 12IntensityRate of energy flow per unit area perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave
- 13PolarisationProcess by which a wave’s oscillations are made to occur in a single plane only
- 14Malus’ lawIntensity of a beam of plane-polarised light after passing through a polariser varies with the square of the cosine of the angle through which the polariser is rotated from the position that gives maximum intensity
