A loop or circular wave is commonly referred to as a "whorl" in oceanography or "eddy" in fluid dynamics. These waves form due to the rotational motion of water or air within a fluid medium.

How does a loop antenna work?

There are two types of loop antenna used in radio, small and large. It is a loop of wire usually circular or square with the circuit (transmitter or receiver) connected at the two adjacent open ends. A large loop is one wavelength in circumference and radiates a wave along the axis of the loop. It can also be thought of as a folded half-wave dipole. A small loop also known as a magnetic loop is one tenth of a wavelength or less in circumference and radiates in the plane of the loop. Used as a receiver, a small loop gives an output signal voltage proportional to the magnetic component of the arriving radio wave. Small loops for receiving can be made from a coil of wire on a ferrite rod, and this type of loop is also called a loopstick antenna. Intermediate-sized loops have a rather unpredictable pattern so tend not be used.


What is a small wave called?

surface wave


What is height of the wave called?

The height of a wave is called the amplitude. The top of the wave is called the crest. The bottom of the wave is called the trough.The frequency of the wave is the number of wave crests passing a given point in a specific amount of time. Frequency is measured in hertz.


What is the vertical distance from the top of a wave to the bottom of a wave called?

The vertical distance from the top of a wave to the bottom of a wave is called the amplitude.


What is the beginning of the wave called?

The beginning of a wave is called the crest. It is the highest point of the wave where the amplitude is at its maximum.

How loop antenna and dipole antenna can be used interchangeably?

A full-wave loop antenna can be interchanged with a folded dipole without much difference. The input impedance is similar and the only difference is in the directivity: a full wave loop radiates along the axis of the loop, while a vertical folded dipole is omnidirectional.

Why it is unsuitable for operational-amplifier to connect in open loop?

In open loop configuration the gain of the amplifier will be infinite, which in turn produces only square wave output.
