- What are the units of P1 and P2 in Coulomb's law for magnetic poles? (picture attached). - What is the accurate name of 'P' : magnetic pole strength? Magnetic pole intensity? PS: Sorry if my questions are too basic for this forum- I am not a Physicist.

The vibrations (mechanical waves) we send into the Earth can be longitudinal (particle motion in the direction of wave propagation) or transverse (particle motion is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation). Do you think this is true for any medium/ wave type? In other words, do you...

I am not sure. I wasn't really speaking about light although same principles apply, I guess? Please let me explain more. In my field (O&G Exploration) we send vibrations into the Earth, and when this energy encounters the interface between Earth layers it follows Snell's Law. My question is...

If the the angle of incidence of an incident ray is less than (or equal to) the Critical Angle, the ray is refracted, but do we still get some reflection from this same incident ray?
