What are waves? / by Hudak, Heather C.,1975-author.(CARDINAL)463468;
What are waves? -- Energy in waves -- Wave motion and patterns -- Waves in water -- What do waves have in common? -- What is amplitude? -- What is wavelength? -- What is frequency? -- The force of waves -- Waves in motion -- Changing waves -- Making waves -- Where do waves come from? -- Share your results -- Learning more -- Crabtree Plus digital code -- Glossary and index.This exciting title introduces readers to the concept of a wave and the patterns and properties common to both light and sound waves. Clear text and detailed diagrams combine to demonstrate the cause-and-effect relationships involved in the properties of amplitude, wavelength, and frequency. A link to interactive activities online plus an activity in the book allow readers to explore key concepts close up by creating their own wave models.4.0.8-11.3.0-6.0.770L

Waves and information transfer / by Hudak, Heather C.,1975-author.(CARDINAL)463468;
Waves in motion -- Patterns of information -- Information waves -- Waves in time -- Looking for new solutions -- Innovations in wave technology -- Living in a digital world -- Digitizing the data around us -- Waves and your devices -- Wireless waves -- Sending messages with waves -- Create your own code 26 -- What happened and why? -- Learning more -- Crabtree Plus digital code -- Glossary and index.In this fascinating title, readers explore how light and sound waves transfer information. From telescopes that extend our sense of sight to satellites that help us communicate across large distances, patterns of waves transfer information in many ways. A link to interactive activities online plus an activity in the book allow readers to use what they have learned about waves to engineer wave patterns that communicate across distances.4.0.8-11.3.0-6.0.850L

Let's ride a wave! : diving into the science of light and sound waves with physics / by Ferrie, Chris,author.(CARDINAL)352374;
"Red Kangaroo is having a fun day at the beach! She loves watching the waves go up and down, but, suddenly, she has a question: Do the waves ever stop? Dr. Chris has the answer-not only do waves never stop, but there are all kinds of waves around us! Discover all the waves you can and can't see, plus the waves you can hear! In this new series, Chris Ferrie answers all the questions Red Kangaroo has about what things are made of and how things work using real-world and practical examples. Young readers will have a firm grasp of scientific and mathematical concepts to help answer many of their "why" questions"--Ages 4-8.Grades 2-3.600L

Einstein's relativity and the quantum revolution [videorecording] : modern physics for non-scientists / by Wolfson, Richard.(CARDINAL)753753; Teaching Company.(CARDINAL)349444;
Each course guidebook contains bibliographical references.Producer, Andreas Burgstaller ; editor, Sal Rodriguez ; content supervisor, Robert Cosgriff.Twenty-four lectures of thirty minutes each by Richard Wolfson, Benjamin F. Wissler Professor of Physics at Middlebury College.Relativity and quantum physics touch the very basis of physical reality, altering commonsense notions of space and time, cause and effect. Both have reputations for complexity, but the basic ideas behind relativity and quantum physics are, in fact, simple and comprehensible by anyone. The essence of relativity in a single sentence: The laws of physics are the same for all observers in uniform motion. Relativity and quantum physics are the gateway to understanding the latest in science news - theories about time travel, string theory, black holes, space telescopes, particle accelerators, and other cutting-edge developments.DVD.
