spreads across a medium (i.e.‚ air or water) as a mechanical longitudinal wave formed by pressure. A Mechanical longitudinal wave can also be called compression wave as it generates compressions and rarefaction when traveling through a medium. (Sound Is a Pressure Wave - Physics Classroom) The amplitude of a sound wave is the difference between the pressure of the undisturbed air and the maximum pressure caused by the wave. The Speed of sound deviates with the temperature‚ and density of the medium

more rewarding. The Rule of Thirds. One of the most popular ’rules’ in photography is the Rule Of Thirds. It is also popular amongst artists. It works like this: Imaginary lines are drawn dividing the image into thirds both horizontally and vertically. You place important elements of your composition where these lines intersect. I’ve even made a little diagram for you (fig 1). As well as using the intersections you can arrange areas into bands occupying a third or place things along the imaginary

have contributed to theories involving light. Of these‚ the wave-particle duality is arguably the most strange and noteworthy concept in the field. Throughout history‚ some physicists have argued that light behaves as a wave‚ such as Christiaan Huygens and others‚ such as Isaac Newton have proposed that light consists of particles (Wave-Particle Duality‚ March 2010). Today‚ as stated in the wave-particle duality‚ light is said to exhibit wave-like and particle-like properties. And still today‚ physicists

Although the number of waves per larva was different‚ it was higher than the waves produced in Table 2‚ the ChR2+ group. Larvae from this plate contracted immediately when the light was turned on and only produced waves during the interval the light was not on. Because the light flashed a set amount of times per second‚ the larva was not able to complete a full wave. This became more evident as the light continued to flash in a shorter time interval as the number of waves decreased as the MRR increased
