There are many glorious science-based terms when it comes to surfing. We all talk about swells, of course, the underwater energy that creates a breaking wave. But we'll look at swell angles and ...

A ripple tank can be used to investigate the frequency close frequencyThe number of waves produced each second. The unit of frequency is hertz (Hz)., wavelength close wavelengthThe length of a single ...

Figure 1: Schematics of the degenerate 4WM process on a thin nonlinear film. In this Letter, we experimentally demonstrate nonlinear optical negative refraction in thin metallic nanostructures. We use ...

sound waves cause air particles to vibrate back and forth ripples cause water particles to vibrate up and down Waves cause a disturbance of the medium through which they travel. This allows them to ...
