How do mechanical waves transfers energy?
A wave is any disturbance that transmits energy through matter or space. Sound is a type of energy that requires waves traveling through matter. The material or substance through which a wave may travel is called the medium. The medium for a wave can be any of the common states of matter: solid, liquid, or gas. Sound waves require a medium. The medium does not move with the energy. Sound waves travel by vibration of particles. If there are no particles, there will be no sound. Waves that require a medium are called mechanical waves. (In addition to sound waves, ocean waves and seismic waves require a medium. Therefore ocean waves and seismic waves are mechanical waves.)
What type of wavefront will emerge from a point source and distant light source?
For a point in space (or from a distant light object), spherical waves are emitted. From a point source on the surface of a liquid, circular waves will come out. In both cases the source will be the focus of the emitted waves.
Is the emission of radiant energy in the form of waves or particles?
It is emitted in waves.
Definition of radiation?
The definition of radiation is when energy is emitted as particles or waves.
What energy is emitted as electromagnetic waves?
radiant energy
Radiant energy is a form of?
It is emitted in waves.
What is the term for energy emitted as electromagnet waves?
radiation
How is radiation work with popcorn?
by the radiating the process of emitting radiant energy in form of particles or waves
What does radiate mean?
Radiation is the process by which energy is emitted from a source and propagated through the surrounding medium, or the energy involved in this process. Radiation consists of a flow of atomic or subatomic particles or of waves. Familiar examples are light (a form of electromagnetic radiation) and sound (a form of acoustic radiation). Both electromagnetic and acoustic radiation can be described as waves with a range of frequencies and intensities. Electromagnetic radiation is also often treated as discrete packets of energy, called photons. All matter is constantly bombarded by radiation from cosmic and terrestrial sources, and radioactive elements emit several types of radiation .
What term is energy emitted as electromagnetic waves?
That would be "radiation".
Is light emitted in waves?
Yes, but it is also, at the same time, emitted in particles (photons) too. This is called the "wave-particle duality" of light.
Why do you see color when you burn a metallic salt?
During the burning process, electrones shift between different energy levels. Returning from a higher to a lower energy level, electromagnetic waves (light) are emitted. Depending on what substance was burned, waves of different length are emitted, i.e. light of different color is radiated.
What is the definition of radiator?
Radiation is defined as the process by which energy is emitted from a source and propagated through the surrounding medium, or the energy involved in this process.Radiation is energy sent out as electromagnetic waves.The flow of energy in the form of rays or waves, which does not need a material medium to transfer heat /\Radiation (ionizing) - fast, high energy sub-atomic particles which, when they hit matter, knock electrons off atoms and break apart molecules.For example (see related link):Emission and propagation and emission of energy in the form of rays or waves.Energy radiated or transmitted as rays, waves, in the form of particles.A stream of particles or electromagnetic waves emitted by the atoms and molecules of a radioactive substance as a result of nuclear decay.
How do waves get their energy?
by the particles in the sea when they bump togheter they give power to the waves by the particles in the sea when they bump togheter they give power to the waves
