    Question 🙋‍♂️
    With the ring he was able to detect the transverse component of the EM wave. What about the other perpendicular part, is it possible to detect it somehow ? Maxwell described EM wave as E and M perpendicular to each other, so far Hertz demonstrates only one part of it, what about the other ?

    Hey Sir, also doing the HSC physics course needed to know if we had required to know about polarisation and the effects of the receiver being placed at different angles relative to the induction coil. If so could you briefly explain, thanks!

    • @PhysicsHigh
      @PhysicsHigh  7 років тому

      +Madhav Sunderram you don't specifically need to know about polarisation. The chief point is that hertz did a variety of experiments, including polarisation and standing waves, to determine the wavelength and hence the speed. This confirmed that Styx was examining a an EMR phenomena

    Here is what i thought.
    For a magnet, some force aligns pound metal around the magnet in a certain way. And i think the pound is assigned only in the blank force field.
    Not because of two em wave interfere each other, i would say the force exist in non continual form but in several lines.
    So there was no spark in blank force field.

      Good question. In essence the charge emitter (two balls with a spark in between) is in essence an LC circuit - a combination of an inductor (L) and a capacitor (C). The Physics of that is governed by some laws, incl Kirchoff's Laws, and from the mathematic derivation you can calculate the angular frequency and hence the natural frequency of the oscillating circuit. Thus Hertz, from his set up knew the frequency. If you are studying NSW Physics, this is NOT examinable, otherwise I would do further research on LC circuits

    • @PhysicsHigh
      @PhysicsHigh  5 років тому +1

      I assume you meant when hertz set up standing waves. Standing waves are an example of interference. At certain points there are nodes where the is no net field, thus no induction thus no spark

    • @Zerofoxthree
      @Zerofoxthree 6 років тому

      Woopterian the frequency can be determined from the wave lenght, from the video we can observe his experiment when he created standing wave and place the receiver inside the standing wave, by doing this he can find the wavelenght and thus the frequency

    • @PhysicsHigh
      @PhysicsHigh  6 років тому +4

      In normal standing waves that is true IF you knew the speed. In standing waves with springs and sound, speed is the known factor. V= freq x wavelength. But in the case of Hertz he did not know the speed, in fact he was trying to determine it. Therefore frequency has to be determined in another way.

    If voice or sound, had the ability to cause change of anything, what would it change?

    does any mass get transferred from the transmitter to the receiver?

      No.

    • @loampey1
      @loampey1 6 років тому

      Maybe I didn't ask the question properly. If E=M then it seems that a radio having received a signal would be more massive because of it having received the energy from the transmitter. Sorry if this seems ignorant to you but my physics teacher is youtube clips and I'm a slow learner.

      trial and error. Not all lengths will give resonance as you probably know but once he got resonance the length was measured and thus the wavelength
