Therefore‚ Liberal and democratic stagnation could signal the end of the third wave of democracy‚ unless reserve wave prevention policies are implemented. A wave of democratization is a period of time where countries move from nondemocratic values to a democratic

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

Korean Wave Hanryu‚ the Korean wave refers to the significant increase in the popularity of South Korean entertainment‚ trends and culture beginning in the 1990s‚ especially in countries of Asia‚ and more recently in other parts of the world. It presents a prodigious surge in the international visibility of Korean culture. The terminology was coined in mid-1999 by Beijing journalists‚ appalled by the fast growing popularity of Korean wave in China. The wave is more than a mere cultural phenomenon;

Stoneley-wave attenuation and velocity are sensitive to fracture and formation permeability‚ especially at low frequencies. Stoneley-wave velocity declines‚ and its attenuation increments‚ as permeability increments. Beginning endeavors (started in the 1970s) to get permeability information from Stoneley information was unsuccessful because neither the significant low-frequency instruments nor the proper handling techniques had been created. The parallel advancement of present day multi-pole array

nature. Six kinds of shock waves are generated in the process. Two are classified as body waves‚ that is‚ they travel through the inside of the earth and the other four are surface waves. The waves are further classified by the kinds of motions they incur to rock particles. Primary or compressional waves‚ known as P waves‚ send particles moving back and forth in the same direction as the waves are traveling‚ as secondary or transverse shear waves‚ known as S waves‚ create vibrations perpendicular

event affected New Zealand society Event: The Second Wave of Feminism The Second Wave of Feminism flourished in the 1970s as a result of gender discrimination against women and inequality in New Zealand. The issue of abortion was a significant social feature of the Second Wave of Feminism.

Constructive waves deposit eroded material along the shore‚ which eventually builds up over time to form a beach. This occurs when the swash is stronger than the backwash‚ depositing more sediment than it transports elsewhere. Although beaches are a landform of deposition‚ they can also be considered to be a landform of erosion. When waves are huge and high‚ the backwash is more powerful than the swash‚ removing more loose material than it deposits. These types of waves are known as destructive waves. The

Radio waves for Communication Radio waves are electromagnetic waves with wavelengths larger than the infrared light. Like all other electromagnetic waves‚ they travel at the speed of light. The wavelengths can vary from the size of a football field to the size of a football. They can be produced naturally by large stars and by lightning. Man-made radio waves are used for transmitting signals and currents. Specific Properties of Radio Frequency (RF) Current Radio frequency is the frequency of radio
