Characteristics and Nature of Waves In physics‚ a wave is a disturbance that travels through space and time‚ usually accompanied by the transfer of energy. Waves travel and the wave motion transfers energy from one point to another‚ often with no permanent displacement of the particles of the medium—that is‚ with little or no associated mass transport. They consist‚ instead‚ of oscillations or vibrations around almost fixed locations. For example‚ a cork on rippling water will bob up and down

odyArtworks are a reflection of the culture in which they are made. Throughout history‚ artists have manifestly depicted the society that surrounds them and as time has progressed‚ artists have continually alluded to the values and restrictions that society has placed. Manet’s Olympia‚ Judy Chicago’s Dinner Party and Orlan’s Orlan Gives Birth to her Loved Self‚ all represent various ideas and interest through the development of a visual language. As society has evolved‚ the depiction of the human

TERANO‚ ECE Lesson 5 ROTATIONAL KINEMATICS AND DYNAMICS Uniform Circular Motion – an object moves at a constant speed along a circular path. Velocity is always tangent to the path in circular motion. Speed is constant‚ velocity is not. Centripetal Acceleration‚ – acceleration that maintains the object along a circular path directed towards the center. Also called as radial acceleration

Question 1(10 marks) Comment the following statements (a) The volume coefficient of thermal expansion of water is negative for temperatures in the range 0 to 4 °C. (b) The triple point of water‚ 0.01 °C‚ and 611.73 Pa‚ is one of the primary fixed points on the Kelvin absolute temperature scale. (c) The volume coefficient for the thermal expansion of a solid is twice the linear coefficient for thermal expansion. (d) A temperature of 26.85 °C is the same as 300 K. (e) The surface temperature

Physics Moment of a force: Moment of a force = force x perpendicular distance of the line if action if the force from fulcrum Law of moments: When a body is in equilibrium the sum of the clockwise moments about any point equals the sum of the anticlockwise moments about the same point. Centre of mass: Centre of mass is the point where whole mass of the body assumes to be concentrated. II. If the vertical line through the centre of mass is outside the base it will be a topples but if it’s passed

This year in science‚ we were paired up in groups to build a car powered only by a rubber band. There was a lot of physics and thought put behind the planning of our car. The rubber band moved the car by storing up elastic potential energy which then turned into kinetic energy when released. Newton’s Laws of Motion also come in handy when thinking about how to keep the car moving. “An object in motion stays in motion.” There was also a lot of thought put into the wheels. We had to be aware of the
