What is a wave?
a wave is a disturbance that travels through a medium from one location to another.
a wave is the motion of a disturbance
![Page 4: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)

Slinky Wave
Let’s use a slinky wave as an example.When the slinky is stretched from end to end
and is held at rest, it assumes a natural position known as the equilibrium or rest position.
To introduce a wave here we must first create a disturbance.
We move a particle away from its rest position.
![Page 5: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

Slinky Wave
One way to do this is to jerk the slinky forwardthe beginning of the slinky moves away from its
equilibrium position and then back.the disturbance continues down the slinky.this disturbance that moves down the slinky is called
a pulse.if we keep “pulsing” the slinky back and forth, we
get a repeating disturbance.
![Page 6: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

Slinky WaveThis disturbance
would look something like this
This type of wave is called a LONGITUDINAL or COMPRESSION wave.
The pulse is transferred through the medium of the slinky, but the slinky itself does not change its position.
It just displaces from its rest position and then returns to it.
So what really is being transferred?
![Page 7: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Slinky Wave
Energy is being transferred.The metal of the slinky is the MEDIUM that transfers
the energy pulse of the wave.The medium ends up in the same place as it started
… it just gets disturbed and then returns to its original rest position.
The same can be seen with a stadium wave.
![Page 8: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Longitudinal Wave
The wave we see here is a longitudinal wave.
The medium particles vibrate parallel to the motion of the pulse.
This is the same type of wave that we use to transfer sound.
Can you remember how??SoundWaveSound 2 show tuning fork demo
![Page 9: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Transverse waves
A second type of wave is a transverse wave.We said in a longitudinal wave the pulse
travels in a direction parallel to the disturbance.
In a transverse wave the pulse travels perpendicular to the disturbance.
![Page 10: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Transverse WavesThe differences between the two can be seen
Before we move on, let’s get Mario’s take!
![Page 11: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
11
Transverse Waves
Transverse waves occur when we wiggle the slinky back and forth. If this motion is repeated, you have a periodic wave.
They also occur when the source disturbance follows periodic motion.
A spring or a pendulum can accomplish this.The wave formed here is a SINE wave. http://webphysics.davidson.edu/course_material/py130/demo/illustration16_2.html
![Page 12: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12
Anatomy of a Wave
Now we can begin to describe the anatomy of our waves.
We will use a transverse wave to describe this since it is easier to see the pieces.
![Page 13: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13
Anatomy of a Wave
In our wave here the dashed YELLOW line represents the equilibrium position.
Once the medium is disturbed, it moves away from this position and then returns to it
![Page 14: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
14
Anatomy of a Wave
The points A and F are called the CRESTS of the wave.
This is the point where the wave exhibits the maximum amount of positive or upwards displacement
crest
![Page 15: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
Anatomy of a Wave
The points D and I are called the TROUGHS of the wave.
These are the points where the wave exhibits its maximum negative or downward displacement.
trough
![Page 16: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16
Anatomy of a Wave
The distance between the dashed line and point A is called the Amplitude of the wave.\
This is the maximum displacement that the wave moves away from its equilibrium.
Amplitude
![Page 17: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17
Anatomy of a Wave
The distance between two consecutive similar points (in this case two crests) is called the wavelength.
This is the length of the wave pulse.Between what other points is can a wavelength be
measured?
wavelength
![Page 18: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
18
Anatomy of a Wave
What else can we determine?We know that things that repeat have a
frequency and a period. How could we find a frequency and a period of a wave?
![Page 19: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
19
Wave frequency We know that frequency measures how often something
happens over a certain amount of time. How can we get a wave’s frequency?
We can measure how many times a pulse passes a fixed point over a given amount of time, and this will give us the frequency.
So if this picture happens in ½ second, what is the frequency in Hz of this wave?
2 waves, in ½ second.
F = 2 / 0.5
F = 4 Hz
![Page 20: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
20
Wave frequency
Suppose I wiggle a slinky back and forth, and count that 6 waves pass a point in 2 seconds. What would the frequency be? < click me >(A) 3 Hz (B) 1/3 Hz (C) 6 Hz (D) 12 Hz3 cycles / second3 HzAgain we use the term Hertz (Hz) to stand for
cycles per second.
![Page 21: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
21
Wave Period
The period describes the same thing as it did with a pendulum.
It is the time it takes for one cycle to complete.It also is the reciprocal of the frequency.T = 1 / ff = 1 / T
![Page 22: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
22
Wave Speed We can use what we know to determine how fast a wave is
moving. (go back to string wave) From your lab, what do you think the speed of a wave depends
on? < click it > (A) frequency (B) Amplitude (C) tension (D) A, B and C
Only the tension in the string and the string’s density affects the wave’s speed.
If you increase the tension the speed … < click it > (A) goes up (B) goes down (C) Stays the same
If you increase the density of the string the speed … < click it > (A) goes up (B) goes down (C) Stays the same
If you change the frequency of a wave, the speed does not change but what does change? < click it > A) wavelength (B) Amplitude (C) tension (D) A, B and C
The wavelength does the opposite, if the frequency goes up, the waves generated have a smaller wavelength.
![Page 23: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
23
Wave SpeedIn other materials, the material itself determines how
fast the wave travels.The stiffer the material
(A) faster the wave (B) the slower the waveThe more dense the material,
(A) faster the wave (B) the slower the waveSimilar wave types travel at the same speed in
similar materials.For example, sound always travels at the same speed
through air, no matter what the frequency is. An A travels the same speed as a C, or D, or your voice.
What would happen if it did not?
![Page 24: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
24
Wave Speed (mathematically)
What is the formula for velocity?velocity = distance / time
What distance do we know about a waveWavelength (length of one wave)
And how long does it take a wave to travel one wavelength?A Period (time for one wave to pass a point)
![Page 25: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
25
Wave Speed
so if we plug these in we getvelocity =
length of pulse (wavelength) /
time for that pulse to pass a point (Period)
v = / Twe will use the symbol (pronounced lambda) to
represent wavelength
![Page 26: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
26
Wave Speedv = / Tbut what does T equal again?
T = 1 / fso we can also write
v = f velocity = frequency * wavelength
This is known as the wave equation.This fits what we said before, as frequency goes up,
wavelength goes down. [string wave]examples

27
Wave Behavior
Now we know all about waves.How to describe them, measure them and
analyze them.But what makes them change?But how do they interact?
![Page 28: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
28
Wave Behavior
We know that waves travel through mediums.But what happens when that medium runs out
or changes?
![Page 29: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
29
Boundary Behavior
The behavior of a wave when it reaches the end of its medium is called the wave’s BOUNDARY BEHAVIOR.
When one medium ends and another begins, that is called a boundary.
![Page 30: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
30
Fixed End
One type of boundary that a wave may encounter is that it may be attached to a fixed end.
In this case, the end of the medium will not be able to move.
What is going to happen if a wave pulse goes down this string and encounters the fixed end?
Simulation
![Page 31: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
31
Fixed End
Here the incident pulse (incoming) is an upward pulse.
The reflected pulse (outgoing) is upside-down. It is inverted.
The reflected pulse has the same speed, wavelength, and amplitude as the incident pulse.
![Page 32: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
32
Free End
Another boundary type is when a wave’s medium is attached to a stationary object as a free end.
In this situation, the end of the medium is allowed to slide up and down.
What would happen in this case?
Simulation
![Page 33: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
33
Free End
Here the reflected pulse is not inverted.It is identical to the incident pulse, except it is
moving in the opposite direction.The speed, wavelength, and amplitude are the
same as the incident pulse.
![Page 34: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
34
Change in Medium
Our third boundary condition is when the medium of a wave changes.
Think of a thin rope attached to a thick rope. The point where the two ropes are attached is the boundary.
At this point, a wave pulse will transfer from one medium to another.
What will happen here?
Simulation
![Page 35: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
35
Change in Medium
In this situation part of the wave is reflected, and part of the wave is transmitted.
Part of the wave energy is transferred to the more dense medium, and part is reflected.
The transmitted pulse is upright, while the reflected pulse is inverted.
Simulation
![Page 36: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
36
Change in Medium
The speed and wavelength of the reflected wave remain the same (same medium), but the amplitude decreases (less energy).
The speed, wavelength, (more dense medium) and amplitude (less energy) of the transmitted pulse are all smaller than in the incident pulse.
Simulation

38
Wave Interaction
All we have left to discover is how waves interact with each other.
When two waves meet while traveling along the same medium it is called INTERFERENCE.
![Page 39: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
39
Constructive Interference
Let’s consider two waves moving towards each other, both having a positive upward amplitude.
What will happen when they meet?
What happens after?
See what happens with the slinky
![Page 40: 1 By: Mike Maloney 2 Waves are everywhere in nature Sound waves, visible light waves, radio waves, microwaves, water waves, sine waves, telephone chord](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042603/56649ea05503460f94ba3d6f/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
40
Constructive InterferenceThey will ADD together to produce a
greater amplitude.This is known as CONSTRUCTIVE
INTERFERENCE.

41
Destructive Interference
Now let’s consider the opposite, two waves moving towards each other, one having a positive (upward) and one a negative (downward) amplitude.
What will happen when they meet? < click it >(A) disturbance gets bigger(B) disturbance gets smaller(C) no effect

42
Destructive InterferenceThis time when they add together they
will produce a smaller amplitude.This is know as DESTRUCTIVE
INTERFERENCE.

Doppler EffectWhen the source of a sound or the observer is
moving there is an observed shift in frequency of the sound, making the observer think it is at a higher or lower frequency.
