The Destruction of the Old Regime France prior to 1789 had been ruled by the highest order of nobility. The king and queen commanded the country from afar while the middle and lower classes agonized in pain at their excessive life of luxury. The constant strain that this was putting on the lower classes created much resentment towards the monarchy; continually ushered in alongside huge financial disparities from the lavish impulses of the nobility and common squandering of money lead to the collapse

what is a wave? a wave is a disturbance which travels through a medium and transfers energy from one point to another without causing any permanent displacement of the medium itself. if a stone is dropped in a pond or swimming pool‚ ripples or waves are seen spreading on the surface of the water from the point where it was dropped. the water itself does not move in the direction of the ripples‚ but the waves transfers energy from one point to another. there are two major classes of waves ; mechanical

The basis for an understanding of sound‚ music and hearing is the physics of waves. Sound is a wave which is created by vibrating objects and propagated through a medium from one location to another. In this unit‚ we will investigate the nature‚ properties and behaviors of sound waves and apply basic wave principles towards an understanding of music. As discussed in the previous unit of The Physics Classroom‚ a wave can be described as a disturbance that travels through a medium‚ transporting

A Cycle of Self Destruction Everyone has a daily routine; wake up‚ eat breakfast‚ head to work‚ spend their entire day at a desk‚ go home‚ have dinner‚ sleep. This is their cycle‚ whether or not they realized it. People try to escape this cycle; they try to break away from the chains that they have bestowed upon themselves. But to do so‚ is easier said than done. Others may have a more destructive cycle than those around them. Victor and Junior are a good example of these people who are bound to

The Elliott wave principle is a form of technical analysis that attempts to forecast trends in the financial markets and other collective activities. It is named after Ralph Nelson Elliott (1871–1948)‚ an accountant who developed the concept in the 1930s: he proposed that market prices unfold in specific patterns‚ which practitioners today call Elliott waves. Elliott published his views of market behavior in the book The Wave Principle (1938)‚ in a series of articles in Financial World magazine in

SUBJECT: ANTENNAS AND WAVE PROPAGATION 1. Define an antenna. Antenna is a transition device or a transducer between a guided wave and a free space wave or vice versa. Antenna is also said to be an impedance transforming device. 2. What is meant by radiation pattern? Radiation pattern is the relative distribution of radiated power as a function of distance in space .It is a graph which shows the variation in actual field strength of the EM wave at all points which are at equal distance from the

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
