Dispersion and the speed of light “So far as problems involving light are concerned‚ the electrons (in atoms) behave as though they were held by springs”.Feynman “In a microscopic but otherwise classical analysis‚ the electric field in electromagnetic radiation accelerates electrons held by springs in the atoms of a piece of glass‚ and these accelerated electrons re-radiate in all directions. The observed light is the superposition of the electric (and magnetic) fields of the incoming

" Factors affecting the speed of sound in a medium" Type of the medium- The speed of sound is not always the same. Remember that sound is a vibration of kinetic energy passed from molecule to molecule. The closer the molecules are to each other and the tighter their bonds‚ the less time it takes for them to pass the sound to each other and the faster sound can travel. It is easier for sound waves to go through solids than through liquids because the molecules are closer together and more tightly

Land Speed Record The land speed record (or absolute land speed record) is the highest speed achieved by a wheeled vehicle on land. There is no single body for validation and regulation; in practice the Category C ("Special Vehicles") flying start regulations are used‚ officiated by regional or national organizations under the auspices of the Fédération Internationale de l ’Automobile. The record is standardized as the speed over a course of fixed length‚ averaged over two runs (commonly called

Once you go over the speed limit provided in a school zone‚ you put a child’s life in danger. During school hours many children
