  2. Maximum power transfer theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_power_transfer_theorem

    In fact, the source resistance that maximizes power transfer from a voltage source is always zero (the hypothetical ideal voltage source), regardless of the value of the load resistance. The theorem can be extended to alternating current circuits that include reactance , and states that maximum power transfer occurs when the load impedance is ...

  3. Oscillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscillation

    where ω is the frequency of the oscillation, ... Some systems can be excited by energy transfer from the environment. ... which maximizes the amplitude of the ...

  4. Förster resonance energy transfer - Wikipedia

    Jablonski diagram of FRET with typical timescales indicated. The black dashed line indicates a virtual photon.. Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET), fluorescence resonance energy transfer, resonance energy transfer (RET) or electronic energy transfer (EET) is a mechanism describing energy transfer between two light-sensitive molecules (chromophores).

  5. Poynting's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poynting's_theorem

    where: is the rate of change of the energy density in the volume. ∇•S is the energy flow out of the volume, given by the divergence of the Poynting vector S. J•E is the rate at which the fields do work on charges in the volume (J is the current density corresponding to the motion of charge, E is the electric field, and • is the dot product).

  6. Radiative transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiative_transfer

    Radiative transfer (also called radiation transport) is the physical phenomenon of energy transfer in the form of electromagnetic radiation. The propagation of radiation through a medium is affected by absorption, emission, and scattering processes. The equation of radiative transfer describes these interactions mathematically. Equations of ...

  7. Flux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flux

    Energy flux, the rate of transfer of energy through a unit area (J·m −2 ·s −1). The radiative flux and heat flux are specific cases of energy flux. Particle flux, the rate of transfer of particles through a unit area ([number of particles] m −2 ·s −1) These fluxes are vectors at each point in space, and have a definite magnitude and ...

  8. Sound energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_energy

    In physics, sound energy is a form of energy that can be heard by living things. Only those waves that have a frequency of 16 Hz to 20 kHz are audible to humans. However, this range is an average and will slightly change from individual to individual.

  9. Energy (signal processing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_(signal_processing)

    Similarly, the spectral energy density of signal x(t) is = | | where X(f) is the Fourier transform of x(t).. For example, if x(t) represents the magnitude of the electric field component (in volts per meter) of an optical signal propagating through free space, then the dimensions of X(f) would become volt·seconds per meter and () would represent the signal's spectral energy density (in volts ...
