Waves are disturbances that transfer energy through a medium without transferring matter. There are two main types of waves: transverse waves, where the medium moves perpendicular to the wave motion, and longitudinal waves, where the medium moves parallel to the wave motion. Key properties of waves include wavelength, frequency, amplitude, and speed. The speed of a wave depends on the properties of the medium and can be calculated using the equation: speed = wavelength x frequency. Waves can change direction through reflection, refraction, and diffraction.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. Why are we able to see?
Answer: Because there is light.
And…what is light?
Answer: Light is a wave.
So…what is a wave?
3. A. Waves
Waves
–rhythmic disturbances that carry energy
through matter or space
Medium
–material through which a wave transfers
energy
–solid, liquid, gas, or combination
–electromagnetic waves don’t need a
medium (e.g. visible light)
4. A wave is a disturbance that carries
energy from place to place.
A wave does NOT carry matter with
it! It just moves the matter as it goes
through it.
5. B. Waves & Energy
Waves
– Carry energy
– Waves are caused
by vibrations
– Can do work
– Move objects
Energy
Waves carry energy
Vibration is a transfer
of energy
As waves carry energy
the particles in the
medium move
the direction of the
motion determines the
type of wave
6. C. Categories of Waves
Mechanical
Waves
– Must travel through a
medium
– Cannot travel through
a vacuum
– Examples: sound,
ocean waves
Electromagnetic
Waves
Does not require a
medium
Can be transferred
through a vacuum
Examples: light, UV
rays, Visible light
7. D. Types of Waves
Two Types:
Longitudinal Transverse
8. D. Transverse Waves
Transverse Waves
– medium vibrates
perpendicular to the
direction of wave
motion
– Examples: water
waves,
electromagnetic
waves
9. E. Longitudinal Waves
Longitudinal Waves (a.k.a. compressional
waves)
– medium moves in the same direction as the
wave’s motion
– Examples: sound waves, springs, slinky
10. B. Transverse Waves

11. Some waves do not need matter (called
a “medium”) to be able to move (for
example, through space).
These are called electromagnetic waves
(or EM waves).
Some waves MUST have a medium in
order to move. These are called
mechanical waves.
13. Parts of transverse waves:
Crest: the highest point of the wave
Trough: the lowest point of the wave
14. 2. Compressional (or longitudinal) waves:
Waves in which the medium moves back and
forth in the same direction as the wave
15. Parts of longitudinal waves:
Compression: where the particles are close together
Rarefaction: where the particles are spread apart
16. Wave Properties
Wave properties depend on what
(type of energy) is making the waves.
1.Wavelength: The distance between one point
on a wave and the exact same place on the
next wave expressed in meters
17. 2. Frequency: How many waves go past a point
in one second; unit of measurement is hertz (Hz).
The higher the frequency, the more energy in the
wave.
10 waves going past in 1 second = 10 Hz
1,000 waves go past in 1 second = 1,000 Hz
1 million waves going past = 1 million Hz
18. F. Measuring Waves
Frequency ( f )
– # of waves passing a
point in 1 second
– SI unit: Hertz (Hz)
shorter wavelength
higher frequency
higher energy
1 second
19. 1
Frequency = period ( )
or
period = the amount of time for one
cycle to do a complete motion
Frequency is measured in hertz (Hz).
1Hz = 1 wave per second
Cycle
second
F. Measuring Waves
20. F. Measuring Waves
Velocity ( v )
– speed of a wave as it moves forward
– depends on wave type and medium
v = × f
v: velocity (m/s)
: wavelength (m)
f: frequency (Hz)
21. F. Measuring Waves
Solid
Molecules are close
together so waves travel
very quickly.
Liquid
Molecules are farther
apart but can slide past
one another so waves do
not travel as fast.
Gas
Molecules are very far
apart so a molecule has
to travel far before it hits
another molecule, so
waves travel slowest in
gases.
22. 3. Amplitude: How far the medium moves from
rest position (where it is when not moving).
Remember that for transverse waves, the highest
point is the crest, and the lowest point is the trough.
23. Remember that for compressional waves, the
points where the medium is close together are
called compressions and the areas where the
medium is spread apart are called rarefactions.
The closer together and further apart the
particles are, the larger the amplitude.
compression
rarefaction
24. The energy of a wave is proportional to the
square of its amplitude. Mathematically
speaking . . .
E = CA2
Where:
E = energy (the capacity to do work)
C = a constant (depends on the medium)
A = amplitude
For example:
If the amplitude is equal to 3 units
(and we assume C = 1 for this case) . . .
E = (1) (3)2 = (1) (9) = 9 units
25. Note that when the amplitude of a wave is one
unit, the energy is one unit.
• When the amplitude is doubled, the energy is
quadrupled.
• When the energy is 10 times greater, the energy is
100 times greater!

26. 4. Wave speed: Depends on the medium in
which the wave is traveling. It varies in
solids, liquids and gases.
A mathematical way to calculate speed:
wave speed = wavelength x frequency
(in meters) (in Hz)
OR
v = f x ג
Problem: If a wave has a wavelength of 2 m and a frequency of 500 Hz,
what is its speed?
27. Answer: speed = 2 m x 500 Hz = 1000 m/s
Changing Wave Direction
1. Reflection: When waves bounce off a surface.
If the surface is flat, the angle at which the
wave hits the surface will be the same as the
angle at which it leaves the surface
(angle in = angle out).
This is the law of reflection.
28. 2. Refraction: Waves can bend.
This happens when a wave
enters a new medium and its
SPEED CHANGES.
The amount of bending
depends on the medium it is
entering.
29. 3. Diffraction: The bending of waves AROUND
an object.
The amount of bending depends on the size of
the obstacle and the size of the waves.
Large obstacle, small wavelength = low diffraction
Small obstacle, large wavelength = large diffraction

Answer: speed = 2 m x 500 Hz = 1000 m/s
For example, think of a pool ball striking the side of the pool table: The angle it hits the side is the same angle it bounces off the side.
