    The s-wave is wave A. The p-wave is always going to be faster than the s-wave. Wave B starts at the velocity of about 8 km/s and wave A starts at about 4 km/s. Since wave A is moving slower, it is the s-wave. Wave A also reflected off the outer core and wave B refracted. The p-wave is wave B. The p-wave is always going to move faster than the s-wave. Wave B starts at the velocity of about 8 km/s and wave A starts at about 4 km/s. Since wave B is moving faster, it is the p-wave. The p-wave refracted off the outer core and the s-wave reflected. The approximate boundary between the mantle and the outer core is 3000 km. The s-wave reflects off of the outer core and that happens at about 3000 km. The p-wave refracts off of the…

    disturbed by an external force. Resulting in the exchange of kinetic energy and potential energy between the mass and spring of the system. An example of interference in the mechanical vibration, which are wind (done with the plane, building bridges), ocean waves (done with the ship in the sea), and ground motion because of the earthquake (action and building structures). The general two kinds of vibration are free…

     Musical Notes Can Count Jerri Pineda Abstract— The development of mathematics involves early connections with music and the basic physics of sound. Mathematics is present in the natural occurrence of the ratios and intervals found in music and modern tuning systems. As people age, their hearing becomes dull and require change in the music ratio and interval to hear the same tune as when young. In like manner, the interval increases until a perfect pitch is heard. In this paper we will examine…

    The song I chose is “Surfin’ U.S.A.”, is characterized by the Beach Boys. I chose this song because of how laid back the tune sounds and makes me want to relax. It’s relaxing because the song reminds me of the beach and the sounds of the waves. In the song it talks about how they will be gone for the summer and to tell the teacher they have gone surfing. The summer always reminds me of the beach and all the surfers in the water. In the 1960’s California was known as the surfing state. The Beach…

    time,θ is wave direction, σ is relative frequency, S_tot is the source term total, and c_g represents the propagation velocity. The first term in the left hand side of the equation represents the local rate of change of action density in time. The second and third terms represent propagation of N in geographic space, accounting for shoaling as the group velocity c_g decreases in shallow water. The…

    Wave Forms The P wave represents atrial depolarization. When the sinus node is in control, there should be a P wave for each and every QRS complex. Typically, sinus P waves do not plot through an ectopic from atrial tissue, since the premature atrial depolarization will reset the sinus cadence called a premature atrial complex (Blesi/Jones/Lewis pg136). The P waves is when the valves between the atria and ventricles open 70% of the blood in the atria and the atrial contraction is only…

    A. WAVES Normally when energy is transferred from one place to another a disturbance is involved. Waves can travel through air, water, and solid materials. Mechanical and electromagnetic waves are the two types of waves. Medium is the material in which a wave travels. Mechanical Waves When a source of energy causes a medium to vibrate, a mechanical wave is formed. Mechanical waves require a medium to travel. There are two different types of mechanical waves: longitudinal and transverse waves.…

    not a simple concept in physics. There are so many topics and under those are subtopics. These topics include waves, which is what we will be focusing on today. Sound waves are made very easily, in fact we create them every day. They can be created by smashing two cooking pans together, this is because as the pots hit each together they create vibrations. Music can also be made is a more complex way. Music is made by repeating sounds in a pattern. Although we cannot see it, waves transport…

    RADIOWAVE OUTDOOR PROPAGATION MODELS General definition: • They are empirical mathematical formulation for the characterization of radio wave propagation as a function of frequency, distance and other conditions. • These models predict the path loss (i.e. the reduction in power density of an electromagnetic wave as it propagates through space or underground) of a transmitter and also the effective coverage area of transmitter. We know that when a signal travels from a wireless channel, it…
