Wave speeds of P- and S-Waves: Transcript


Aaron Bunch Abstract The example of seismic waves in earthquakes leads us to expect that longitudinal and transverse waves will have different wave speeds in a Slinky Using video analysis software the speeds of longitudinal and transverse waves were measured in . Takeoff speeds are a safety key element fo r t of an d en able pilot sit at ion l awareness and decisionmaking thi very dynami c si tuati n The use of erroneous takeoff speeds can lead to tail strikes highspeed rejected ta keoffs or initial climb w 54 THE SPEEDS OF WAVES IN THE FIRMAMENT1 We report here on recent work on the properties of the firma-ment. This work has to do with the characteristic speeds in the firma-ment. The speed of  S8P4. . Students will explore the wave nature of sound and electromagnetic radiation. . Identify . the characteristics of electromagnetic and . mechanical waves. . . b. Describe how the behavior of light waves . Wave Properties. There are 6 main properties, or interactions, of waves that occur when a wave comes in contact with another wave , or a boundary. . The 6 Interactions of waves are. Interference. Diffraction. Seismic . Waves. . are shock . waves . given off by earthquakes. . There are 2 types:. 1. . Body Waves. . originate from the . focus. (. F. ). travel . through. . the earth. . They’re used to locate . S8P4b. Describe how the behavior of light waves is manipulated causing reflection, refraction, diffraction, and absorption.. Reflection. Reflection occurs when a wave strikes an object or surface and bounces off.. Waves transfer energy!. A wave does not carry matter . It only moves matter as it travels through it.. Waves. Compression (longitudinal) waves . are waves in which the particles of the medium move in a direction . REMINDER!. DON’T FORGET. TO . STUDY!. . Electromagnetic waves. Mechanical waves. Interference. Reflection. Refraction. Pitch. diagrams. 1. Define . the following words:. Crest . – . the highest part of a transverse wave.. Before the waves are made the particles are same distance apart. While waves moves through the medium the particles . compress. together, then they spread further apart (stretched areas)- . rarefaction.. Ex. In the ocean, waves travel across but the water only oscillates up and down returning to their original position. . Pulse - a single wave from a disturbance. Ex. Throwing a rock in water (a pulse travels in all directions from the point of contact). Forward vs. backward propagating wavesReminders about complex numbers is a positive number.and t is time, then the displacement is the velocity of the wave. -4-2024 Later, we will derive the wave equa Get 1 full page and 1 half page of paper.

Creating longitudinal compression waves in a slinky. What happens when you pull back and release one end of the slinky . ? . The Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell (1831–1879) was the first person to truly understand the fundamental nature of light. . He proved in 1865 that an electromagnetic disturbance should propagate in free space with a speed equal to that of light..
