Hey guys, doubt. Are water waves longitudinal or tranversal? :S

Water waves move up and down (oscillate) this is a property of a Transverse Wave.

Longitudinal waves compress and refract (squash and stretch)  

Just a lil extra knowledge!

say the voltage is 6V

first diagram the 100 ohms (connected to Voltmeter) gets 100/200 * 6 = 3

for the second diagram the 100 ohms gets 100/190 * 6 = 3.15

thus increases a little

Thanks alot..i didnt think of it in that way...i just said in both cases its across the 100ohms so stays the same....thaaank youuu!!

Hey guys, i really dont understand the concept of reflective index. :/ can someone explain it to me? :) OH and another thing. Wht is the relationship between the resistance of a wire and its length and diameter? :S

theres not much to know abt it, just the formula

ALWAYS formula for refractive index depends from which medium it passes
eg .
From denser to rarer (glass to air) refractive index = sin r /sin i (i - angle of incidence, r - angle of reflection)
From rarer to denser (air to glass refractive index =  sin i / sin r

the refractive index is never less than 1, so if ur getting the value of d refractive index < 1..u gotta check for errors..
