The contribution of the wavelets lying on the back of the wave front is zero because of something known as the Obliquity Factor. It is assumed... View Article
The waves are known to play a key role in the following processes: Erosion - waves have the ability to erode the coastline in a manner that is... View Article
The bending of light happens because in a denser medium, light is known to move more slowly. As the wavelength of light decreases, the amount of... View Article
A metal electrode or graphite rod protected by an electrolyte paste is knwon to be present in all dry cell batteries, all within a metal jar. The... View Article
Ionization energies are almost always known to be positive numbers. This is because energy must be supplied (that is, an endothermic energy... View Article
Metals are known to typically have only a few valence electrons. Because of this, the valence electrons are only loosely bound to the nucleus and... View Article
Both Z+ and N are sets. Z is known to stand for 'Zahlen', which is German for 'numbers'. When putting a + sign at the top, it means only the... View Article
