Define and describe the following, if you can, site
some example/simple analogy.
1. Wave-particle duality of light
2. Energy quantization
3. Black body
4. Ultraviolet catastrophe
What is the fastest transverse wave that can be sent along a
given wire? For safety reasons, the maximum tensile stress to which
this wire should be subjected is 3.56 × 108 N/m2. The density of
the wire is 8300 kg/m3. Note that your answer does not depend on
the diameter of the wire.
I. What is the difference between a standing wave in a string
and a wave that progresses within a string?
a) in a standing wave the location of maximums and minimums
along the string is constant in time.
b) in a wave that progresses the velocity of the wave changes
with time.
c) in a standing wave the wavelength is constant, whereas in a
progressing wave it is not
d) a standing wave is only created by having an external...
When was the latest wave of globalization? What new advances in
technology supported this?
How can international economic integration (globalization) be
measured? Provide information on each method.
What does the trade -to-GDP ratio measure? Does a low value
indicate that a country is closed to trade with the outside
world?
What are some of the differences between capital flows today
versus the 1900’s? Provide details on at least 2 of these
differences.
What phenomena can be explained using a wave model of light? Do
this carefully and thoroughly. Be sure to state what property of
the wave model leads to the explanation it provides. Link this
property to the ray and Huygen’s diagrams you draw. DRAW
