... The presence of a solid inner core was first predicted in 1936 by the discovery of weak reflections of Pwaves from a boundary within the core. Later, a Danish seismologist observed that P-waves accelerate below a depth of about ~5100km, but it was not before the early 1960's that the actual size of ...

Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM)
... The only thing you can count on in life, the world, and the universe is that things will change – often, things won’t change just one way, but will oscillate back and forth. Objects in motion that return to the same position after a certain period of time are in harmonic motion or periodic motion. A ...
