We often encounter some conditions involving the reflection of waves all around us, for example, in the phenomenon of echo, the sound reflected from a distant object reaches the listener with a little delay. Reflection When a wave is an incident on any surface, a part of the incident wave is reflected and a part … Read more
Beats of waves is a term used in physicals and engineering as the envelope of an oscillating signal is a smooth curve outlining its extreme. The envelope then generalizes the concept of amplitude. There is a phenomenon that occurs when two waves meet while traveling along with the same medium and it is known as … Read more
The body is in the periodic motion if the motion is executing and repeating after the equal time intervals, such as the rocking chair and swing in the motion. The periodic function can be defined as the function returning to the same value at regular intervals. Though the periodic motion sounds similar to the oscillatory … Read more
Free Oscillation Free oscillation is a kind of oscillation in which the body oscillates with natural frequency without the help of any periodic force or external force. No energy being add or taken away for this system. In a free oscillation, the sum of potential energy (PE) and kinetic energy (KE) cannot increase the potential … Read more
In physics, simple harmonic motion is a distinct type of oscillation. In simple harmonic motion, the restoring force is directly proportional to its displacement and force is applied in the opposite direction to displacement. An object is experienced simple harmonic motion if; The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the displacement from its … Read more
A restorative force is always associated with the simple harmonic motion that is acting in the opposite direction of velocity. During the oscillations, the restorative force is changing and is always dependent on the position of the object. In the pendulum, the restorative force is the component of gravity along with the path of the … Read more
The ideal black-body notion is of primary importance in studying thermal radiation and electromagnetic radiation energy transfer in all wavelength bands. Being an ideal radiation absorber, the black body is used as a standard with which the absorption of real bodies is compared. The black body additionally emits the utmost quantity of radiation and, consequently, … Read more
Relationship between the temperature of a black body and also the wavelength at which it emits the most light, Wein’s displacement law was named after German scientist Wilhelm Wien, who received the award for Physics in 1911 for discovering the law. Wien studied the wavelength or distribution of black-body radiation within the 1890s. It was … Read more
The periodic motion is the most common in the clockâs hands, in the wheels of the car, and the motion of the earth around the sun. All of these motions are repetitive as after the equal intervals of the time, the motion is being repeated. The motion that is repeating itself in the intervals of … Read more
In physics, the phase is the periodic function F, of some of the real variables (t) and phase, is the relative value of that variable in the span of every full period. Typically, it is expressed as an angle. Its expression is on such a scale that it varies by the 1complete full turn as … Read more
