Characteristics and Nature of Waves In physics‚ a wave is a disturbance that travels through space and time‚ usually accompanied by the transfer of energy. Waves travel and the wave motion transfers energy from one point to another‚ often with no permanent displacement of the particles of the medium—that is‚ with little or no associated mass transport. They consist‚ instead‚ of oscillations or vibrations around almost fixed locations. For example‚ a cork on rippling water will bob up and down

1.1 GRAVITY AND GRAVITATIONAL FIELDS 1.1.1 Define weight as the force on an object due to a gravitational field. Weight is the force experienced by an object due to the presence of a gravitational field. This force is directly related to the strength of the gravitational field acting on an object and the mass of that object. m = mass‚ g = acceleration due to gravity m = mass‚ g = acceleration due to gravity Fg = mg Fg = mg 1.1.2 Explain that a change in gravitational

Book Review: Daily Life in the United States‚ 1920-1940 The way Americans lived their lives was drastically changed between the years of 1920 and 1940. Many different events and advances in technology happened within the country during this time period. Events such as the stock market crash in 1929‚ the dust bowl of the 1930’s‚ and‚ due to an increase in urbanization‚ the uprising of major cities. Also advances in technology transpired‚ such as the invention of the radio and Henry Ford’s assembly

Physics Moment of a force: Moment of a force = force x perpendicular distance of the line if action if the force from fulcrum Law of moments: When a body is in equilibrium the sum of the clockwise moments about any point equals the sum of the anticlockwise moments about the same point. Centre of mass: Centre of mass is the point where whole mass of the body assumes to be concentrated. II. If the vertical line through the centre of mass is outside the base it will be a topples but if it’s passed
