1. Wave Superposition and Interference | 波的叠加与干涉
When two or more waves of the same type meet at a point, the resultant displacement is the vector sum of the individual displacements. This principle of superposition leads to interference effects: constructive interference occurs when waves are in phase (path difference = nλ), producing maximum amplitude, while destructive interference occurs when waves are exactly out of phase (path difference = (n + ½)λ), leading to cancellation. The Insert often provides the relationship for path difference in terms of wavelength, highlighting its role in double-slit and diffraction grating experiments.
当两个或多个同类型的波在一点相遇时，合位移等于各个位移的矢量和。这一叠加原理导致干涉效应：当波同相（波程差 = nλ）时发生相长干涉，产生最大振幅；当波完全反相（波程差 = (n + ½)λ）时发生相消干涉，导致抵消。插页通常提供以波长表示的波程差关系，突出其在双缝和衍射光栅实验中的作用。
2. Standing Wave Formation in Strings and Air Columns | 弦与空气柱中的驻波形成
A standing wave results from the superposition of two identical waves travelling in opposite directions. In a string fixed at both ends, resonant frequencies are given by f = n v / (2L), where n = 1,2,3…, v is wave speed and L is length. In a pipe open at both ends, the same harmonic series applies; for a pipe closed at one end, only odd harmonics exist: f = (2n−1)v / (4L). The Insert may include diagrams of standing wave patterns, and it is vital to identify nodes and antinodes to relate wavelength to the length of the medium.
驻波是由两列相同、相向传播的波叠加产生的。在两端固定的弦中，谐振频率由 f = n v / (2L) 给出，其中 n = 1,2,3…，v 为波速，L 为长度。在两端开口的管中，适用相同的谐波系列；对于一端封闭的管，只存在奇次谐波：f = (2n−1)v / (4L)。插页可能包含驻波模式图，识别波节和波腹从而将波长与介质长度联系起来至关重要。
3. The Diffraction Grating Equation | 衍射光栅方程
The diffraction grating equation, d sin θ = nλ, relates the grating spacing d, the angle θ at which a bright fringe appears, the order n, and the wavelength λ of monochromatic light. The Insert provides this equation to enable calculations of wavelength or grating spacing. Since sin θ cannot exceed 1, the maximum observable order is limited. The formula assumes coherent light and normal incidence; it forms the basis for understanding spectra produced by gratings.
衍射光栅方程 d sin θ = nλ 将光栅间距 d、明亮条纹出现的角度 θ、级次 n 以及单色光的波长 λ 联系起来。插页提供此方程，以便进行波长或光栅间距的计算。由于 sin θ 不能超过 1，可观测的最大级次是有限的。该公式假设相干光且正入射；它是理解光栅产生光谱的基础。
4. Refraction, Snell’s Law, and Critical Angle | 折射、斯涅耳定律与临界角
When light passes from one medium to another, its speed changes, causing refraction. Snell’s law, n1 sin θ1 = n2 sin θ2, governs the angles of incidence and refraction. The absolute refractive index n of a medium is the ratio c/v. The Insert may provide values of n for common materials, facilitating calculations. Total internal reflection occurs when light travels from a higher to a lower refractive index medium at an angle exceeding the critical angle θc, where sin θc = n2/n1 (n2 < n1).
当光从一种介质进入另一种介质时，其速度改变，导致折射。斯涅耳定律 n1 sin θ1 = n2 sin θ2 决定了入射角和折射角。介质的绝对折射率 n 等于 c/v 的比值。插页可能提供常见材料的 n 值，便于计算。当光从较高折射率介质射向较低折射率介质且入射角超过临界角 θc 时，发生全内反射，其中 sin θc = n2/n1（n2 < n1）。
5. Photons and the Photoelectric Effect | 光子与光电效应
The photoelectric effect is the emission of electrons from a metal surface when electromagnetic radiation of sufficient frequency illuminates it. According to the photon model, light consists of discrete quanta (photons) each carrying energy E = h f, where h is Planck’s constant and f is frequency. A single photon interacts with a single electron; if the photon energy exceeds the work function Φ of the metal, an electron is ejected. The Insert lists values of h and sometimes Φ for reference.
光电效应是当频率足够高的电磁辐射照射金属表面时发射出电子的现象。根据光子模型，光由离散的量子（光子）组成，每个光子携带能量 E = h f，其中 h 是普朗克常数，f 是频率。单个光子与单个电子相互作用；如果光子能量超过金属的功函数 Φ，电子就会被射出。插页列出 h 值，有时也列出 Φ 值以供参考。
6. Einstein’s Photoelectric Equation | 爱因斯坦光电方程
Einstein’s photoelectric equation is expressed as Ek,max = h f − Φ, where Ek,max is the maximum kinetic energy of emitted electrons. The stopping potential Vs relates to this energy by eVs = Ek,max. The equation demonstrates the linear relationship between f and Ek,max, and that there is a threshold frequency f0 = Φ / h below which no emission occurs. This concept confirms the particle nature of light.
爱因斯坦光电方程表示为 Ek,max = h f − Φ，其中 Ek,max 是发射电子的最大动能。遏止电压 Vs 与该能量关系为 eVs = Ek,max。该方程表明 f 与 Ek,max 之间的线性关系，并且存在阈频率 f0 = Φ / h，低于此频率不会发射电子。这一概念证实了光的粒子性。
7. Wave-Particle Duality and de Broglie’s Hypothesis | 波粒二象性与德布罗意假设
De Broglie proposed that all moving particles have an associated wavelength λ = h / p, where p is momentum (p = mv). Thus, electrons can exhibit wave-like behaviour, such as diffraction. The Insert may include an electron diffraction pattern and the de Broglie equation. The wave–particle duality principle unifies the photon model and electron diffraction, showing that both light and matter possess dual characteristics.
德布罗意提出，所有运动的粒子都有一个相关的波长 λ = h / p，其中 p 为动量（p = mv）。因此，电子可以表现出波动行为，例如衍射。插页可能包含电子衍射图样和德布罗意方程。波粒二象性原理统一了光子模型和电子衍射，表明光和物质都具有双重性质。
8. Ohm’s Law, Resistance, and Resistivity | 欧姆定律、电阻与电阻率
For an ohmic conductor at constant temperature, the potential difference V across it is directly proportional to the current I, expressed as V = IR, where R is resistance. Resistance depends on the material’s resistivity ρ, length L, and cross-sectional area A: R = ρL/A. The Insert provides this relationship and often includes standard symbols and units. Resistivity varies with temperature, and deviations from Ohm’s law occur in non-ohmic devices such as filaments and diodes.
对于恒温下的欧姆导体，两端的电势差 V 与电流 I 成正比，表示为 V = IR，其中 R 是电阻。电阻取决于材料的电阻率 ρ、长度 L 和横截面积 A：R = ρL/A。插页提供这一关系，并常包括标准符号和单位。电阻率随温度变化，对于灯丝和二极管等非欧姆器件，会偏离欧姆定律。
9. Kirchhoff’s Current and Voltage Laws | 基尔霍夫电流与电压定律
Kirchhoff’s first law: the total current entering a junction equals the total current leaving it (conservation of charge). Second law: in any closed loop, the sum of the EMFs equals the sum of the p.d.s (conservation of energy). These laws are fundamental for analysing complex circuits. The Insert may not explicitly state them, but they underlie the provided relationships for series and parallel combinations, such as equivalent resistance formulae.
基尔霍夫第一定律：进入某节点的总电流等于离开该节点的总电流（电荷守恒）。第二定律：在任何闭合回路中，电动势之和等于电势差之和（能量守恒）。这些定律是分析复杂电路的基础。插页可能不会明确陈述它们，但它们为提供的串联和并联组合关系（如等效电阻公式）奠定了基础。
10. The Potential Divider and Potentiometer | 分压器与电位器
A potential divider uses two resistors in series to produce a fraction of the input voltage: Vout = [R2/(R1+R2)] Vin. This principle is extended in the potentiometer circuit, where a variable resistor or length of wire allows comparison of EMFs without drawing current. The Insert often depicts the potential divider circuit, and questions may involve adjusting resistance to control voltage or the use of a slider.
