Standing waves are also referred to as stationary waves. When a wave transfers energy from one point to another it…
Wave interference occurs when two waves, both travelling in the same medium, meet. Depending on the phase of the waves…
Light waves are often referred to when discussing reflection, refraction and diffraction. However, these behaviours also apply to other waves…
Wave Speed – the distance a wave travels per unit time. From kinematics we know that speed is equal to…
Electromagnetic Waves Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves with different frequencies that make up the electromagnetic spectrum. The waves are created…
Waves are a transfer of energy that can be described as vibrations (or oscillations) about a rest point. Below is…
