In this post, we will list down some important features of sound waves (the nature of sound waves). Some important features of sound waves | the nature of sound waves Sound is a longitudinal wave transferred by oscillating molecules so that it needs a medium through which to travel. Sound cannot travel across a vacuum. […]
How to Measure the speed of sound in a laboratory?
Here we will see How to Measure the speed of sound in a laboratory. It is possible to measure wave speed using the equation: speed = distance travelled/time taken The problem with measuring the speed of sound in air is that sound travels quickly. So we must find a way to measure short times accurately […]
Progressive Waves – Longitudinal & Transverse waves
A progressive wave motion transmits energy from the source through a material or a vacuum without transferring matter. Wave motion can occur in many forms, such as water waves, sound waves, radio waves, light waves, and mechanical waves. Waves: Basic Properties Waves are produced by the oscillation of particles or electric and magnetic fields. They […]
[PDF Notes] Longitudinal waves grade 11 Notes download | class 11 physics notes Longitudinal waves
This Longitudinal waves Notes [PDF] is primarily for the 11th grade physics syllabus of different international boards. This also covers the class 11 physics syllabus on Generator, motor & electrodynamics for boards like ICSE, CBSE, etc. This physics class note covers the theoretical as well as the numerical part of this important chapter. We hope, […]
What is a wave and how it helps in energy transfer? Explain with graphs
What is a wave? A wave is a means to transfer energy from one place to another via oscillations without causing any net movement of any matter. Mechanical Wave A mechanical wave is a wave that needs some sort of mechanical medium or substance that oscillates to allow the transfer of the energy. The sound […]
