Light‚ Color‚ and Sound - 4th Six Weeks Project Fiber Optics Sara McCormack‚ Special Harris‚ K’sandra Cunningham‚ and Arkayza Ross Light‚ Color‚ and Sound – Fiber Optics An optical fiber is made up of a core‚ cladding‚ and a buffer. The cladding moves the light along the core by using total internal reflection. The core and the cladding are usually made of high-quality silica glass‚ but they can both be made of plastic as well. Connecting two optical fibers is done by fusion splicing

As well as a little history of our own religious past. The basis of our western and European civilization‚ values‚ philosophy and democracy is based upon the Greek. Pretty much the rest of the globe (60%) doesn’t care for our way of life. In the Arab culture‚ it is taught that there is no tax on lying. Geographically speaking‚ everything east of India

Fiber Optics History of Fiber Optics History Of Fiber Optics In 1870‚ John Tyndall‚ using a jet of water that flowed from one container to another and a beam of light‚ demonstrated that light used internal reflection to follow a specific path. • Alexander Graham Bell patented an optical telephone system‚ which he called the Photophone • He dreamed of sending signals through the air‚ but the atmosphere didn’t transmit light as reliably as wires carried electricity. • During the 1920s‚ John

Fiber optics is a cable that is quickly replacing out-dated copper wires. Fiber optics is based on a concept known as total internal reflection. It can transmit video‚ sound‚ or data in either analog or digital form . Compared to copper wires it can transmit thousands of times more data (slide 2) . Some of its general uses are telecommunications‚ computing‚ and medicine. <br> <br>The very first "fiber" was made in 1870 by the British physicist John Tyndal. In this experiment that he showed to the

Internet Infrastructure: Undersea Cables When thinking about where the internet lives‚ it would be plausible to think it lies among high-tech satellites communicating around the world simultaneously – resembling something of a digital cloud. Instead‚ the internet does not resemble a cloud‚ but instead resides in a physical infrastructure in hundreds of cables snaking underground and along the bottom of the sea. In fact‚ overseas satellite links currently account for only roughly 2 percent of international

Submarine cables Laying of cables in the oceans of our world is a fascinating business. Real men and women toil long and tedious hours to make this possible. Submarine cables are laid down by using specially modified ships (sometimes even purpose built ships) that carry the submarine cable on board and slowly lay it out on the seabed as per the charts/plans given by the cable operator. The ships can carry with them up to 2‚000 kilometers length of cable. Depending on the equipment on-board
