waves Flashcards
1
Q
wave speed (m/s2)
A
velocity = frequency(Hz) x wavelength(m) V=fλ
2
Q
Frequency
A
1/peroid(s) f=1/T
3
Q
refractive index
A
sine of angle of incidence/sine of angle of refraction n=sin i/sin r
4
Q
refractive index (without angles)
A
speed of light in a vacuum(3x10^8m/s) /speed of light in material n=cv
5
Q
refractive index (critical angle)
A
1/sine of critical angle n=1/sin C
