Each case of communicable disease is the result of an orderly progression in. a series of events. This series of events may be described as a three-link chain, each. link representing a factor essential to the transmission of disease. These links (figure 1-1) are: (1) The source of the disease (reservoir) (2) The means by which the disease may be transmitted (mode of.
Radio Waves. Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic (EM) radiation with wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum longer than infrared light . They have have frequencies from 300 GHz to as low as 3 kHz, and corresponding wavelengths from 1 millimeter to 100 kilometers. Like all other electromagnetic waves, radio waves travel at the speed of light. Naturally occurring radio waves are made by lightning or by astronomical objects.
In fluid dynamics, wind waves, or wind-generated waves, are surface waves that occur on the free surface of oceans, seas, lakes, rivers, and canals or even on small puddles and ponds. They result from the wind blowing over an area of fluid surface. Waves in the oceans can travel thousands of miles before reaching land. Wind waves range in size from small ripples, to waves over 100 ft (30 m) high. When directly generated and affected by local winds, a wind wave system is called a wind sea.
