Trigonometry - Waves. A sine wave is a function of the time t: y(t)=A\sin(\omega t - \phi) The phase of a sine wave, \phi, is the displacement of the wave when t=0.

Trigonometry - Waves

The angular frequency of a sine wave, \omega, has the unit rad/s. The frequency of a sine wave, f, denotes how many revolutions there are per unit time. The unit for frequency is Hz=1/s (Hertz). SPM Physics: Interference Phenomena. In order to understand interference, u need to understand the concept of superposition.

SPM Physics: Interference Phenomena

The principle of superpositionstates that; When two waves meet or overlap, the resultant displacement is equal to sum of the displacement of each wave. Look at the figure below; Check this video too..a creative illustration of wave superposition the green wave meet the brown wave..yellow wave is produced So... we can conclude that..interference will occur if two wavefront meets.

This will produce either constructive or destructive interference as shown in diagram above. U should also check the following: Water Interference Light Intererence. Teaching English.

Eighteen Lohan Hands

Many readers have asked me about the famous Shaolin Eighteen Lohan Hands. They were taught by the great Bodhidharma in 527 CE to monks at the Shaolin Monastery in China when this First Patriarch of the Shaolin arts found the monks weak and often sleepy during meditaion, which is the essential path towards enlightenment. The Shaolin Eighteen Lohan Hands are fundamental chi kung exercises that can bring tremendous benefits if they are practised as chi kung. Over the years, I have successfully used selections from the Eighteen Lohan Hands to help many people overcome illness, including so-called incurable diseases. But if they are practised as physical exercise, which is often the case nowadays, naturally the practitioner will only get the benefits of physical exercise.

Post reading time: 15 minutes. Language learning need not be complicated. Principles of cognitive neuroscience and time management can be applied to attain conversational fluency (here defined as 95%+ comprehension and 100% expressive abilities) in 1-3 months. Some background on my language obsession, from an earlier post on learning outside of classes: From the academic environments of Princeton University (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Italian) and the Middlebury Language Schools (Japanese), to the disappointing results observed as a curriculum designer at Berlitz International (Japanese, English), I have sought for more than 10 years to answer a simple question: why do most language classes simply not work? The ideal system — and progression — is based on three elements in this order… 1. Effectiveness, adherence, and efficiency refer to the “what”, “why”, and “how” of learning a target language, respectively.

Gwoyeu Romatzyh (pinyin: Guóyǔ luómǎzì, literally "National Language Romanization"),[1] abbreviated GR, is a system for writing Mandarin Chinese in the Latin alphabet.

Gwoyeu Romatzyh

The system was conceived by Y.R. Chao (Zhao Yuanren) and developed by a group of linguists including Chao and Lin Yutang from 1925 to 1926. Chao himself later published influential works in linguistics using GR. In addition a small number of other textbooks and dictionaries in GR were published in Hong Kong and overseas from 1942 to 2000. GR is the better known of the two romanization systems which indicate the four tones of Mandarin by varying the spelling of syllables ("tonal spelling").[2] These tones are a fundamental part of the Chinese language: to a Chinese speaker they are no less a component of a word than vowels are to an English speaker.[3] Tones in Chinese allow speakers to discriminate between otherwise identical syllables—in other words they are phonemic.
