    surfing! Many things we use every day involve waves. Lights and sounds are examples of everyday uses that travel by wave. On the spectrum of light there are waves listed which are X-Rays‚ UV-Rays‚ and Infrared. Some of these are harmful to life‚ and some of these are helpful to life‚ where mostly they all serve both of these purposes. Another type of wave‚ though not on the spectrum because it is not light‚ are sound waves. Weather the wave is a sound wave or a light wave it consists of the basic similar

    tape Carlos G. Camara1*‚ Juan V. Escobar1*‚ Jonathan R. Hird1 & Seth J. Putterman1 Relative motion between two contacting surfaces can produce visible light‚ called triboluminescence1. This concentration of diffuse mechanical energy into electromagnetic radiation has previously been observed to extend even to X-ray energies2. Here we report that peeling common adhesive tape in a moderate vacuum produces radio and visible emission3‚4‚ along with nanosecond‚ 100-mW X-ray pulses that are correlated

    Energy Transformation Conduction‚ convection‚ and radiation are things that exist in our life. Thanks to that stuff we have things like electricity and things to cook too. I am going to explain things about energy transformation. Heat transfer is the way heat moves through matter to change the temperature of other objects. There are three types of heat transfers‚ Conduction‚ Convection‚ and Radiation. The first kind of heat transfer‚ conduction‚ is heat transferring through direct contact of materials

    ------------------------------------------------- Anechoic chamber An anechoic chamber (an-echoic meaning non-echoing or echo-free) is a room designed to stop reflections of either sound or electromagnetic waves. They are also insulated from exterior sources of noise. The combination of both aspects means they simulate a quiet open-space of infinite dimension‚ which is useful when exterior influences would otherwise give false results. Anechoic chambers were originally used in the context of acoustics (sound
