How velocity of light is calculated?
The speed of light can be both calculated and measured. Light waves are formed by mutually interacting orthogonal electric and magnetic fields. Using properties of these electric and magnetic fields, you can arrange the equations of physics into a partial differential equation, called the "wave equation". This equation contains a constant in it, which is the wave-speed of light. It's value is found from other physical constants, and is about 3 106 km/sec. This value was measured in a vacuum and found to be within excellent agreement. James Clerk Maxwell first theoretically found the speed of light from what is now called the Maxwell equations.
Who is the creator of the wave equation?
Erwin Sherdinger
What is the equation for frequency wave speed and wave lenght?
Wavespeed = frequency x wavelength
What is the limitations of schrodinger wave equation?
The biggest limitation by far is that an exact solution is possible for only a small number of initial conditions. For example, one can figure out the solution for permitted states of one electron around a nucleus. However, there is no exact solution for even two electrons around a nucleus.
What is the equation for frequency?
Frequency = Wave speed / Wavelength.
What is the meaning of Biot-Savar's equation?
1) What is the definition of dielectric permittivity on the basis of Maxwell equations? 2) What is Poisson equation of Electrostatics? Derive the Poisson equation from Maxwell equations. 3) Write the Biot-Savar equation. What is the meaning? 4) Derive a wave equation of a plain electromagnetic wave from Maxwell equation.
How does Maxwell found that electromagnetic radiations travel with the speed of light?
Light is a form electromagnetic radiation. Maxwell predicted the speed of an EM wave, and it was found to be identical to that of light.It arose in the form of constants in the wave equation that falls out of Maxwell's four equations that summarize the relationships among electrodynamic and magnetic fields.
How do you show that a wave function is a solution to the time- independent Schrodinger equation for a simple harmonic oscillator?
You should substitute your solution in the equation. If the solution is correct you will receive equality. Otherwise your solution is wrong.
What is the definition of electromagnetic wave?
Electromagnetic waves were first postulated by James Clerk Maxwell and subsequently confirmed by Heinrich Hertz. Maxwell derived a wave form of the electric and magnetic equations, revealing the wave-like nature of electric and magnetic fields, and their symmetry. Because the speed of EM waves predicted by the wave equation coincided with the measured speed of light, Maxwell concluded that light itself is an EM wave. According to Maxwell's equations, a time-varying electric field generates a magnetic field and vice versa. Therefore, as an oscillating electric field generates an oscillating magnetic field, the magnetic field in turn generates an oscillating electric field, and so on. These oscillating fields together form an electromagnetic wave. A quantum theory of the interaction between electromagnetic radiation and matter such as electrons is described by the theory of quantum electrodynamics.
What is meant by modes in optical fiber?
An optical modes refer to a specific solution of the Wave Equation which satiates the boundary conditions.
What 2 major properties did Maxwell predict that electromagnetic waves would possess?
Maxwell predicted that electricity and magnetism group together to form a electromagnet wave traveling through space. He also predicted that the resulting electromagnet wave did not require a medium for transmission, and traveled at the speed of light.

Who invented wave theory of light?
maxwell huygens
How do you write a sinusoidal equation from a chart?
we see the amplitude of the wave and carefully note it then we see the starting from the x axis and then write the equation in sin form
What scientist hypothesized that light was an electromagnetic wave?
James Maxwell
Why did hertz invent the electromagnatic wave?
Hertz invented the electromagnetic wave to test James Clerk Maxwell's theory that light is a form of electricity. Hertz created electric waves and showed that they operated like light.
Who divised the wave theoery of light?
Maxwell developed the wave theory of all forms of electromagnetic radiation.
