The radiant energy emitted by a black body at any given temperature consists of electromagnetic waves having a wide range of
wavelengths. Also this energy is not equally distributed over all the wavelengths. The study of distribution of energy amongst the various
find wavelength
The spatial period of the wave the distance over which the wave's shape repeats is termed as the wavelength of a sinusoidal wave. It is generally determined by
taking the distance between consecutive corresponding points of the same phase, like crests, troughs, or zero crossings, and is a characteristic feature of both
trave..
A measure of the distance between repetitions of a shape feature like peaks, valleys, or zero-crossings is termed as Wavelength. Let us take an example: In
waves over deep water a particle in the water moves in a circle of the same diameter as the wave height, unrelated to wavelength..
Term : Diffraction
The diffraction phenomena is observed when the condition l `~~` b 2 / 4 `lambda` is satisfied, where l is the distance between the object and the screen, b size of
th object an d `lambda` is the wavelength of light obstructed by the object. There is a little difference between the formation of interference and diffract..
. All these three are interrelated and can be explained either in terms of waveforms or particles called as photons or quanta. These phenomena are best
exemplified by considering electronic spectra. This is termed as near infrared wavelength rang..
Wavelength (l)
The distance between two adjacent crests or two adjacent troughs is called wavelength. It is denoted by the Greek letter l (lambda) and is generally expressed in
The terms like Wavelength ( ), Period (T), Frequency (f), Displacement (x) ,Amplitude (x 0 ) are used to describe waves. Wavelength is the distance between two
adjacent points with the same pattern of oscillation. It is also the distance the wave travels before the pattern repeats itself and is measured in..
in the case of a transverse wave or it is the distance between two consecutive compressions or rarefactions. Wavelength, frequency and time period describe a
wave..
As wavelength is the distance covered during one oscillation and frequency is the number of oscillations per second, the product of the wavelength and frequency
would give us the wave velocity. The four important terms used in the study of waves are Wavelength, Amplitude, Frequency and Wave velocity. ..
Light is made up of photons that has a certain amount of energy .Light is radiant energy that has both electrical properties and magnetic properties. Hence it is
also called as Electromagnetic radiation. All waves are characterised in terms of their wavelength, frequency, velocity and amplitude. These are discussed belo..

Introduction to Term Diffraction The term diffraction in the case of waves refers to their bending round the obstacles. When the obstacle is large compared to the
wavelength no wave bends around the edges of the obstacle. When the size of the obstacle is small compared to the wavelength of the light waves ..

Question 7
Question: Define the terms velocity and wavelength applied to sound wave and state the relation between velocity, frequency and wavelength. Answer: The
distance traveled by a wave in one second is its velocity. The distance traveled by the wave when it completes one oscillation. It is the distance between ..
The blue light has the highest frequency whereas the red light has the lowest in the visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. A redshift is the shift in the
frequency of a photon toward lower energy, or longer wavelength and it is defined as the change in the wavelength of the light divided by the rest wavelength..
Introduction to define gamma ray: Gamma rays are denoted as . An electromagnetic radiation with very short wavelength that is even smaller than that of an atom
and possessing high frequency is termed as gamma radiation. When different sub-atomic particles interact with each other, these radiations get released. This

Tutors are very good.They explained in detail to be able to comprehend more so I understand the concepts of each problem. Hats off Tutor Vista.
Really liked thier styling of tutoring. Very helpful. they went step by step and had me work out the answer- Adad
This explained everything to me clearly and helped me so much and I think it has made a difference in my understanding. Its gone from small to big
The tutor remembered me from last week and noted my improvement. This is simply amazing :)
