Understand how to identify amplitude and frequency of waves and features of transverse and longitudinal waves with this guide for KS3 physics students aged 11-14 from BBC Bitesize.

We experimentally demonstrate negative refraction of the longitudinal elastic wave at the deep-subwavelength scale in the metamaterial fabricated in a stainless steel plate.

Sound is a longitudinal wave which consists of compressions and rarefactions travelling through a medium. Sound wave can be described by five characteristics: Wavelength, Amplitude, Time-Period ...

The figure shows a schematic for an oscillator amplitude-control servo system. The circuit creates a closed-loop system that supplies a fixed and adjustable peak-to-peak amplitude ...

Mechanical and electromagnetic waves, transverse and longitudinal waves, pulses and continuous waves are compared. Frequency, wavelength, period, and amplitude of waves are studied.

S waves are more dangerous than P waves because they have greater amplitude and produce vertical and horizontal motion of the ground surface. The slowest waves, surface waves, arrive last.

In an effort to investigate the cumulative seismic damage in reinforced concrete bridge piers, the authors first examined the response of model bridge columns to constant amplitude and random cyclic ...

When longitudinal waves are used for performing this two-transducer approach, low interference is combined with better penetration, as against the use of shear waves.
