  1. 1Transverse waves transfer energyPerpendicular to direction of vibration
  2. 2Longitudinal waves transfer energyParallel to direction of vibration
  3. 3An example of transverselight
  4. 4example of longitudinalsound
  5. 5amplitude- Amaximum displacement from point of equilibrium
  6. 6wavelength-/\distance between two identical points on wave cycle
  7. 7frequency- fnumber of vibrations per unit time
  8. 8time period - Ttime taken for one complete vibration
  9. 9law of reflectionangle of incidence = angle of reflection
  10. 10Law of refractionrefractive index is ration of speed of light in a vacuum to speed of light in the new material
  11. 11seismic waves are measured usingseismometres
  12. 12P waveslongitudinal
  13. 13S wavestransverse
  14. 14P waves arrive1st
  15. 15S waves arrive2nd
  16. 16epicentre of earthquake can be found using3 seismometers. Find the time difference in arrival between P and S waves.
  17. 17S waves cannot pass throughliquid outer core so they reflect back
  18. 18P waves refract a lot at boundaries whendensity changes drastically
  19. 19all electromagnetic waves aretransverse
  20. 20convex lensfocuses light to a point
  21. 21concave lensspreads out light. diverging
  22. 22convex mirrordiverges light
  23. 23concave mirrorfocuses light. converging
  24. 24refracting telescopelight is refracted by convex lens. convex lens converges light . Light is then refracted by eyepiece lens inverting the image
  25. 25reflecting telescopelight reflects off the primary mirror which is concave so it converges light onto the secondary mirror which is plane. this mirror stops the observer obscuring part of the image. Light is refracted by the eyepiece lens, magnifying image.
  26. 26modern telescopes for astronomy arereflecting telescopes as they are cheaper and the mirrors reflect all wavelengths of light.
  27. 27continuous spectrawhite light disperses producing a spectrum of coloured light. contains all wavelengths in the range.
  28. 28emission spectrawhite light from a hot gas disperses. Black background with few coloured lines- emitted wavelengths of elements in the hot gas.
  29. 29absorption spectrawhite light passes through a cool gas. colourful spectrum with dark lines-wavelengths absorbed by atoms in the gas.
  30. 30each element has unique lines on spectra in order toidentify elements in stars.
  31. 31in hot environment of stars atoms in the gas getexcited.
  32. 32when the atoms in a gas get excitedthey increase in energy level.
  33. 33when the excited atoms drop back they willemit a specific light which produces lines on the emission spectra.
  34. 34pitchfrequency
  35. 35loudnessamplitude
  36. 36short wavelengthhigh frequency
  37. 37echoesreflections of sound

  46. 46Hubble's constant70kms^-1Mpc^-1
  47. 471 km1000 m
  48. 481 ly9.5x10^15 m

  50. 50d=v/H0d-Mpc
    v-km/s
  51. 51age of universe1) gradient on graph=70kms^-1Mpc^-1
    2)km/s/Mpc=70x1000=70000 ms^-1Mpc^-1,70000/3.1x10^22= H0 in s^-1
    3)t=1/H0 so fint time in s then convert to years by /(365.25x24x60x60)
  52. 52redshiftstars moving away
    the bigger the redshift, the faster stars are moving away.
