Meaning of Amplitude
Wat is the maximum displacement or distance moved by a point on a vibrating body or wave from its equilibrium (or mean) position?
Meaning of constructive interference
Constructive interference is a phenomenon where two or more waves combine to create a single wave with a greater amplitude.
The most likely moon formation theory
What is the Giant Impact Hypothesis?
Cosmic cloud of gas and dust
What is a nebula?
These massive sections of Earth’s lithosphere float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere and move slowly over time.
What are tectonic plates?
Meaning of Pitch
What is the quality of a sound governed by the rate of vibrations producing it; the degree of highness or lowness of a tone?
Meaning of Destructive interference
Destructive interference is a phenomenon where two or more overlapping waves combine to produce a wave with a smaller amplitude, which can even be zero if the waves are perfectly out of phase
This theory proposes the Moon split off from a rapidly spinning early Earth.
What is the Fission Theory?
Nebulae that are so dense that they block out the light from stars
What are dark nebulae?
The driving mechanism of plate tectonics is partly attributed to this process in the mantle, involving the slow circulation of hot, plastic rock
What is mantle convection?
What is the measure of how many times a repeating event, such as a wave or oscillation, occurs in one second
The way Noise canceling headphones work!
What is destructive interference?
This Shakespeare play features the line, “To be, or not to be: that is the question.”
What is Hamlet?
These massive clouds of gas and dust are the primary sites of star formation in galaxies.
What are stellar nurseries or molecular clouds?
At divergent boundaries along the mid-ocean ridges, new oceanic lithosphere forms through this process, which also contributes to seafloor spreading.
What is magmatic upwelling or volcanic accretion?
Meaning of Peak and Trough
The peak (or crest) is the highest point of a wave, while the trough is the lowest point.
When a sound wave reinforce
When a sound wave reinforces another, their amplitudes add together, making the sound louder through constructive interference.
What one video did we watch(the simulation) and who made it
The one by Nasa
When a dying star expels its outer layers and leaves behind a hot core that illuminates the expelled gas, it creates this type of nebula.
What is a planetary nebula?
This type of plate boundary is characterized by two plates sliding past each other, often producing transform faults and earthquakes without significant volcanic activity.
What is a transform boundary?
Meaning of the "LINE OF EQUILIBRIUM"
The line of equilibrium for a sound wave represents the normal, undisturbed state of the medium—such as air—when no sound is present.
This phenomenon occurs when two coherent sound waves of slightly different frequencies reinforce and cancel each other periodically, producing alternating loud and soft sounds known as what?
What are beats?
The similarities in oxygen isotopes between Earth and its satellite provide strong evidence supporting this theory of the Moon’s origin.
What is the Giant Impact Hypothesis?
This nebula, visible after a supernova explosion, consists of expanding gas and dust, often forming complex filamentary structures, with the Crab Nebula as a prime example.
What is a supernova remnant?
When two plates move away from each other, they form this type of boundary, often creating mid-ocean ridges.
What is a divergent boundary?
