What best describes why refraction of a wave occurs when the wave travels from one material into another?
Refraction occurs because the speed of the wave varies in different materials,sin(I)/V(I) = sin(T)/V(T)
What is the angle of incidence equivalent to?
Snell's law equates the ratios of two angles and wave velocity.sin(a)/V1 = sin(b)/V2When a wave strikes a medium some energy is reflected and some passes through.a is the angle between the longitudinal wave velocity of the wave in the first medium as measured from a perpendicular to the tangent of the surface of the medium.b is the angle between that perpendicular and the longitudinal wave as it is refracted within the medium.The angle of incidence refers to these angles.Clearly, if the wave strikes perpendicular to the surface, a = b = 0 and sin(a) = sin(b) = 1
What is the formula for waves?
A = B sin ( 2 pi f t )A = height of the wave at any instant of time, at one constant placeB = peak amplitude of the wave at that placef = frequency of the wavet = time since the wave began rising for the first time
What is the frequency of a wave?
The frequency of a wave, represented by the letter f, is the number of occurrences of a repeating event per unit time. It is also referred to as temporal frequency. The SI unit of cycles per second is called hertz or Hz. Hz can be expressed as a reciprocal second (s-1 or 1/s). The number of waves that pass a point in 1 second
How is a sine curve related to a wave?
See the link belowA sine wave is computed by a mathematical function. A pure sine wave in a physical sense would exactly match the calculated value in the function at every point in time.
What type of wave is a sine wave?
A periodic wave done using a rope is for example a sine wave. It is the form of Simple Harmonic Motion, and traces the equation y = sin(x) where y=1 and -1 are the peaks.
What is a triangle-wave voltage function?
Triangle-wave voltage signal is a periodic signal that always has a constant positive and negative slope and no zero slope. It is exactly how it is sounds... a triangle shaped wave. /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ - just like that. Nothing in this world can naturally produce perfect triangle waves. Every vibrates as periodic sinusoid. Triangle waves can be generated from sin waves with the use of Fourier Series. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourier_series By summing sin waves with different periods nearly any time-continuous signal can be created. -VM

How do you explain tangent in geometry?
You can explain it either using Sin or Cosine, or you could always just say tangent= opposite/ adjacent
What are some periodic functions?
Some examples of periodic functions include sine and cosine functions, square wave functions, and sawtooth wave functions. These functions repeat themselves over a given interval, called the period, and have the same values at regular intervals.
What best describes why refraction of a wave occur when the wave travel from one material into another?
Refraction occurs because the speed of the wave varies in different materials,sin(I)/V(I) = sin(T)/V(T)
What is crest factor of sin wave?
sqrt(2)
What is use of function generators?
funcation genrator is used for genrating various forms of the waveforms like as sin wave, square wave , triangular wave
Will Anger be a sin?
Yes. Anger is always gonna be a sin.
Determine the amplitude of y equals -2 sin x?
The amplitude of the wave [ y = -2 sin(x) ] is 2.
