When a vibration of a particular frequency takes place, a nearby object may start to vibrate in sympathy. The vibrations then combine to produce a large vibration. This is called resonance. Resonance is an effect caused by a vibrating body setting another body vibrating, both having the same natural frequency. If set into vibration and left to vibrate by itself a body will vibrate with its own natural frequency. On the other and it can be made to vibrate at any frequency by an imposed external frequency. When the imposed frequency is the same as the natural frequency,...

from the fact that the antinode at the top does not exactly coincide with the top of the tube. For the second position: l2 + c = 3l eliminating c from both equations, we

have: l2 ?óÔé¼ÔÇ£ l1 = l/2
l = 2l2 ?óÔé¼ÔÇ£ l1
v = f l = 2fl2 ?óÔé¼ÔÇ£ l1
the velocity v can then be calculated, note that two lengths l1 and l2 are obtained instead of just one.
As time passes and our world becomes more technologically developed there is a greater need for energy sources. Most of the fuels we use today are not renewable e.g. oil and coal. Nuclear Power is a source of energy which has many benefits. Nuclear energy is less expensive because...

It could be argued that current physics research could be divided into three areas - theoretical, experimental and computational. Numerical approach, in which systems are mimicked as accurately as possible using a computer or in which computer models are set up to provide well - behaved experimental systems are increasingly...

Aim: To examine characteristics of a converging lens and the images they create. Also to examine the focal length and how the focus point may be found and developing rules for locating an image via ray drawings and the intersection of rays. Chromatic aberration will also be explored and why...

Introduction The beginnings of our Universe have many times been contemplated, and many different solutions have been approached from many different views. The Big Bang Theory, however, is the most widely accepted theory to have been come across. Though there is a large amount of evidence to prove that...
