Define polarization of an electromagnetic wave?
Polarization is the alignment of the transverse vibration in a single direction say in the horizontal direction or vertical direction or any other specific direction. Consider if venetian blinds were letting in light then horizontal light would pass but vertical light would be blocked and the passed light would be horizontally polarized.
What is the function of bertrand lens?
Bertrand lens An accessory lens which may be inserted into the light path above the analyser in a transmitted-light microscope. When determining vibration directions or interference figures using parallel or convergent polarized light, the Bertrand lens is inserted to bring the image of the interference figures into focus. Alternatively, if the Bertrand lens is absent, the eyepiece may be removed and the vibration directions or interference figures observed by looking down the microscope tube. The lens was first used in 1878 by E. Bertrand who adapted an original (1844) design by G. B. Amici. In petrological Refractive Microscopes its applicability is more to determine the Mineral type by identifying the interference figures. it shows whether the mineral is Uniaxial or Biaxial and also +ve or _ve.
Describe standing waves and how they are formed?
The modes of vibration associated with resonance in extended objects like strings and air columns have characteristic patterns called standing waves. Scroll down to related links and look at "Strings, standing waves and harmonics".
What is vibration of wave?
Vibration is the frequency of the wave.
A vibration which is rapid back and forth motion?
The rapid back and forth of air or other matter is the sounds vibration (vibration is the anwser).
Why does the direction of polarization of light compare with the direction of vibration of the electrons that produced it?
the plane of polarization matches the vibrational direction of the electrons
Is polarization a property of light waves but not sound waves?
That is correct. Polarization is possible only when the direction of vibration is perpendicular to the direction of the wave travel, such is in light. In sound waves, the direction of vibration (compression) is the same direction as the direction of the travel of the sound wave, and therefore polarization is not possible.
Define polarization of an electromagnetic wave?
Polarization is the alignment of the transverse vibration in a single direction say in the horizontal direction or vertical direction or any other specific direction. Consider if venetian blinds were letting in light then horizontal light would pass but vertical light would be blocked and the passed light would be horizontally polarized.
What is the Difference between plane of polarization and plane of vibration?
A plane including the direction of light propagation and the direction of electric field is called the "plane of vibration". The "plane of polarization" is a confinement of the electric/magnetic field vector to a given plane along the direction of propagation.
Explain the states of polarization?
The vibration of the electric field in radiation is perpendicular to the direction of the wave. This provides 360 degrees of for the vibration to occur in. Polarization is the angle of the 360 degrees that vibration occurs at. If the ligth is coming at yu like the face of a clock, the angle could be at 3:00, 6:00 or 9:00 or any angle. Some crystals rotate the angle of polarization, that is light goes in at 3:00 and comes out at 5:00. Normally reflection by a surface will absorb polarization not parallel to the surface, leaving the wve polarized parallel to the surface.
What is one vibration rienforcing another of the same frecquency?
Constructive interference.
When one vibrating object causes similar vibration in another that is nearby?
acoustic resonance
Why do you use negative voltage in vibration measurement?
Because the vibration measeure ment uses the RF, so to avoid interference the negative voltage is used
What is resonance in physics?
A phenomenon that occurs when the frequency of a force applied to a system matcches the natural frequency of vibration in a system, resulting in a large amplitude of vibration.
Physics definition of a wave form caused by interference that appears not to move along the medium and that shows some regions of no vibration and other regions of maximum vibration?
standing wave
What is seismec waves?
Seismic waves are the vibration generated by an earthquake, explosion, or similar phenomenon and propagated within the Earth or along its surface.
Is polarization possible for longitudinal waves?
polarization is not possible for longitudinal waves in electromagnetic waves electric and magnetic fields are perpendicular to each other and these two are perpendicular to direction of propagation so by using vertical or horizantal slits it is possible to polarize the electromagnetic waves where as in longitudinal waves the particles vibration is parllel to the direction of propagation so it is not possible to polarize the longitudinal waves
