superposition

listen to the pronunciation of superposition
Englisch - Englisch
The placing of one thing on top of another
The deposition of one stratum over another; the principle that in a series of sedimentary strata, the lower strata are the older
{n} a placing above, situation above, that which is placed upon something else
(geology) the deposition of one geological stratum on another
the placement of one thing on top of another
the placement of one thing on top of another (geometry) the placement of one object ideally in the position of another one in order to show that the two coincide (geology) the deposition of one geological stratum on another
{i} placing of one thing on or above another; placing of one figure over another so that they exactly coincide (Geometry)
This describes how layers are usually laid down according to their age: the oldest layer is found on the bottom, and the most recent layer is on top So, if a layer is on top of another layer, it is probably more recent
if two (or more) signals are received simultaneously the resultant amplitude will be the sum of the original signal amplitudes
(geology) the principle that in a series of stratified sedimentary rocks the lowest stratum is the oldest
(geometry) the placement of one object ideally in the position of another one in order to show that the two coincide
The act of superposing, or the state of being superposed; as, the superposition of rocks; the superposition of one plane figure on another, in geometry
superposition principle
The principle that a linear combination of two or more solutions of an equation is itself a solution; it is a feature of many physical laws
superposition principle
A principle holding that certain waves or functions can add together when overlapped to form a new wave or function and then return to their original states when separated
superpose
{f} place on or above something else; place one figure over another, cause two figures to exactly coincide (Geometry)
superpose
To lay (a figure) upon another in such a manner that all the parts of the one coincide with the parts of the other; as, to superpose one plane figure on another
superpose
place (one geometric figure) upon another so that their perimeters coincide
superpose
place on top of; "can you superimpose the two images?"
superpose
To lay upon, as one kind of rock on another
principle of superposition
(geology) the principle that in a series of stratified sedimentary rocks the lowest stratum is the oldest
principle of superposition
the displacement of any point due to the superposition of wave systems is equal to the sum of the displacements of the individual waves at that point; "the principle of superposition is the basis of the wave theory of light"
superpose
To place one thing on top of another
superpose
To place one geometric figure on top of another in such a way that all common parts coincide
