German researchers used a high-speed camera to capture exactly what occurs when one of the distinct bottles is opened. The post Germans solve science of sound of swing-top beer bottles opening ...

Speed\((v)\) is in metres per second \(m\,s^{-1}\), distance \((d)\) in metres \((m)\) and time\( (t)\) in seconds \((s)\). Measuring the time taken for a sound wave ...

You need to know about these quantities used in waves - what they mean, the symbols used for them and the units used to measure them. The amplitude (\(a\)) of a wave is the distance from the ...
