Sound Wave
/saʊnd weɪv/
noun — "a traveling vibration that carries energy through a medium as pressure variations."
Amplitude
/ˈæm·plɪˌtud/
noun — "the maximum extent of a signal’s variation from its baseline."
Frequency
/ˈfriːkwənsi/
noun … “how often a wave repeats in a unit of time.”
Electromagnetic Waves, Sound Waves, and signals in digital or analog electronics. Frequency determines key characteristics such as pitch in audio, color in light, and propagation behavior in radio and communication systems.
Clock Signals, determining the speed at which a CPU executes instructions or how data streams are synchronized.
Surface Integral
/ˈsɜːr.fɪs ˈɪn.tɪ.ɡrəl/
noun … “summing quantities over a curved surface.”
Vector Field
/ˈvɛk.tər fiːld/
noun … “direction and magnitude at every point.”
Vector Field is a mathematical construct that assigns a vector—an entity with both magnitude and direction—to every point in a space. Vector fields are fundamental in physics, engineering, and applied mathematics for modeling phenomena where both the direction and strength of a quantity vary across a region. Examples include velocity fields in fluid dynamics, force fields in mechanics, and electromagnetic fields in physics.
Maxwell’s Equations
/ˈmækswɛlz ɪˈkweɪʒənz/
noun … “the laws that choreograph electricity and magnetism.”
Electromagnetic Wave
/ɪˌlɛktroʊˈmæɡnɛtɪk weɪv/
noun … “energy rippling through space at light speed.”
Electromagnetic Field
/ɪˌlɛktroʊˈmæɡnɛtɪk fiːld/
noun … “a dynamic interplay of electricity and magnetism.”
