motivated him to study and earn numerous degrees from Harvard‚ MIT and the University of Chicago. He then became a full-time professor of optical physics at Johns Hopkins University He wrote many articles on spectroscopy‚ phosphorescence and diffraction. He is best known for his work in ultra-violet light. Wood has been described as the "father of both infrared and ultraviolet photography" because of the discovery of electromagnetic radiation beyond the visible spectrum and the development

Waves are mainly known for their way of transferring energy from one place to another without transferring any matter.Transverse and longitudinal are waves in which can be related to one another in some kind of way. A transverse wave is a wave in which vibrates perpendicular to the direction of the waves motion. As a transverse wave travels through a medium‚ the individual particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of the wave travel. They may occur in a string‚ in the surface of

Importance of colloidal dispersion in pharmacy Pharmaceutical Applications of colloids: Colloids are extensively used for modifying the properties of pharmaceutical agents. The most common property that is affected is the solubility of a drug .However‚ colloidal forms of many drugs exhibits substantially different properties when compared with traditional forms of these drugs. Certain medicinals have been found to possess unusual or increased therapeutic properties when formulated in the colloidal

Wireless energy transfer or wireless power is the transmission of electrical energy from a power source to an electrical load without artificial interconnecting conductors. Wireless transmission is useful in cases where interconnecting wires are inconvenient‚ hazardous‚ or impossible. The most common form of wireless power transmission is carried out using direct induction followed by resonant magnetic induction. Other methods under consideration include electromagnetic radiation in the form of microwaves or lasers

Objective The objective of this experiment was to find the focal length of two converging lenses separately and also to find the focal length of combination of two converging lenses. Another objective was to study the image formed by a converging lens plus diverging lens. Background This experiment focused on a simple lens system. A simple lens is a piece of glassware that is spherical on one side and flat on another side‚ or spherical on both sides. There are two different types of lenses

Drion Shkreli Alchemy to Astrophysics Professor Efthimiades 12/11/2012 Quantum Mechanics Homework 1. Principles of Quantum Mechanics a. Particles have multiple virtual motions and each motion is accompanied by a wave. The strength of the total particle wave at each point corresponds to the probability that the particle may be found there. Applying this principle we can explain all kinds of phenomena‚ from the properties of atoms and radioactivity to light reflection. 2. Electron Double
