Competency of Witness (Ss. 118-121 and 133 IEA)

Witnesses and documents are the main sources of evidence. A witness (Testis) is a person who gives evidence before any court. As per Bentham, witnesses are the eyes and ears of justice. Witnesses can be the person who gives valuable input for the case. It is through witnesses and documents that evidence is placed before […]

Numerical Problems on Wave Motion Set – 02

Science > Physics > Wave Motion > Numerical Problems on Wave Motion Set – 02 Wave velocity in medium does not depend on the frequency. It depends upon the Elasticity and inertia of the medium. When medium changes the wavelength and velocity of wave changes but the frequency remains the same. Thus n1 = n2. […]

Introduction to Wave Motion

Science > Physics > Wave Motion > Wave Motion The motion that repeats itself after fixed intervals of time is called periodic motion. We know that oscillatory motion is a type of periodic motion. Oscillatory motion is defined as the to and fro motion of an object from its mean position. Examples: oscillation of simple […]
