Waves Vibrations and Oscillations

sound waves are pressure waves that can push a thin membrane in a microphone. that membrane is attached to a magnet that moves through a loop of wires called a solenoid. the motion of a magnetic field moving through a solenoid generates an electric current (an electro-magnetic wave)

that signal can be transported down a wire and re-interpreted at another telephone.

Gamma rays have the highest energy and are the most powerful waves on the electromagnetic spectrum.

Primary waves (P-waves) are the type of seismic wave that travels the fastest through rock material. These waves are able to cause rocks to vibrate in the same direction as the waves, resulting in a back-and-forth motion.

This statement is incorrect. S waves are actually transverse seismic waves, meaning they move particles perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Longitudinal seismic waves are known as P waves.

No, the frequency of a harmonic oscillator does not depend on its amplitude. The frequency is determined by the properties of the system, such as mass and spring constant, and remains constant regardless of the amplitude of the oscillation.

The term vibration can be used to described a repetitive motion of something like, say, the string of a musical instrument. A string could be said to vibrate at a certain rate. The vibration creates sound at a given number of cycles per second (the rate or frequency of vibration), and this gives the vibration a certain pitch or note.

An earthquake is the movement or vibration in the earth caused by the sudden release of energy in the Earth's lithosphere. It results in the shaking of the ground and can lead to significant damage and destruction if severe enough.

The MJO is a coupling between atmospheric circulation and deep tropical convection which tends to have a period of variability of 1-3 months. It is characterized by tropical convection propogating eastward, starting in the Indian Ocean and moving through the Pacific Ocean. It is linked to other modes of low frequency variability such as ENSO, but is not necessarily causal. Its impacts include primarily rainfall anomalies in parts of the Eastern tropics, and more subtle effects on moisture and energy getting into the mid- and high latitudes.

It is displayed using a Hovmöller diagram.

A seismograph is the instrument used to record seismic waves. It consists of a ground motion sensor (such as a geophone or accelerometer) coupled with a recording device to capture the ground movements during an earthquake or other seismic events.

Electromagnetic Waves all have constant velocity which are equal to the speed of light. It is only the frequency of the wave that differentiates ie between radio, gamma, X-ray. The velocity is always fixed at 3 x 10^8 ms^-1 which is equivalent to the speed of light.

WACS (Women's Army Corps) and WAVES (Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service) were military personnel who served in non-combat roles during World War II. They provided crucial support in areas such as administration, communications, and logistics, freeing up male soldiers for combat duties.

An EM wave is caused by an energy source, such as something as big as a supernova or something as small as an electron changing in speed. I would say the change in the energy level of the energetic particle that causes the wave determines the frequency of the wave.

Whilst you may be right about the quantum physics, the frequency of the wave is that of the energy source, be it in a star or a radio transmitter, driving it.

Refraction is when light slightly bends because glass or water is in the way. This makes the object look bent or crooked. For example when you put a straw in a glass of water, the straw looks as if it were bent, but it really isn't. Reflection is when the light particles of an object bounce off of another object showing the same image. You can't see your reflection on all objects though.

When deep water waves reach water shallower than one half their wave length the deep-water waves become shallow-water waves.

when a charge oscillates for example in a capacitor it produce an electric field; which in turns produce a magnetic field in an inductance. the magnetic field oscillates perpendicular to the electric field and an electromagnetic waves perpendicular to both is produced.

Sound waves require a medium, such as air or water, to propagate because they rely on the vibration of molecules. In a vacuum, there are no molecules for the sound waves to travel through, so they cannot propagate, resulting in the absence of sound.

Louis de Broglie

When it was determined that light exhibits all of the properties of wave motion, including refraction, reflection, diffraction, and dispersion, and that its speed is exactly determined by the electrical characteristics of the medium through which it propagates, just like radio, heat, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays, and gamma rays, and as predicted by the wave equation that Maxwell derived from the properties of electricity and magnetism, it then began to dawn on cutting-edge researchers that light is also an electromagnetic wave. In short, the answer to the question "why" is: Because it IS one.

It causes and earthquake

Electromagnetic energy is gathered in the form of visible light, radio waves, and x-rays to learn about objects in space. Different telescopes and instruments are used to collect and analyze these electromagnetic signals to study the properties and behavior of celestial objects located far away.

Wave amplitude affects the loudness of the sound you hear - higher amplitude waves create louder sounds. Wave frequency affects the pitch of the sound you hear - higher frequency waves create higher pitched sounds. Together, amplitude and frequency determine the overall characteristics of the sound wave you perceive.

The average speed of primary waves (P-waves) in the Earth's crust is around 6-7 kilometers per second (km/s). They travel faster than secondary waves (S-waves) and surface waves, making them the first to be detected during an earthquake.

Wavelength and frequency are inversely related to each other when it comes to the speed of light. As the wavelength of light increases, the frequency decreases, and vice versa. However, the speed of light remains constant in a vacuum at approximately 3.00 x 10^8 meters per second.
