A wave is … …a motion of
disturbance
Waves “propagate in 3-dimensions”.
Waves move through a medium – the particles do not MOVE WITH THE WAVE!

A wave moves through the medium.The medium does not move WITH the wave motion.The particles in the medium vibrate!

There are 2 types of waves
Transverse Wave Longitudinal Wave
Particle vibration is perpendicular to wave motion
Particle vibration is parallel to wave motion

There are 2 Categories of Waves
Mechanical Waves
Electromagnetic Waves
Need a medium to travel through.
Can travel without a medium
For example, through gas, liquid or solids
For example, through a vacuum

Wave Speed EquationV=f λ
velocity = frequency x wavelength
c =f λSpeed of light = frequency x wavelength

Sound needs a medium to travelSpeed of Sound in standard air:
Light can travel through a vacuumSpeed of Light in a vacuum:
v = 340 m/s
c = 300,000,000m/s

Waves can “Reflect”Reflection occurs for both mechanical and electromagnetic waves. Sound and light waves can both reflect, but do so with various rules which will later be discussed with examples.Below are two common examples of sound and light reflecting.
Sound waves can reflect causing what we know as an echo.
Light waves can reflect causing what we know as a mirror effect.

Standing WavesA wave pattern that results when two waves of the same frequency, wavelength and amplitude travel in opposite directions and interfere.
![Page 27: Waves & Wave Properties Introduction to Wave Properties](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062311/5a4d1ad17f8b9ab059971630/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Standing Waves have ‘nodes’ and ‘antinodes’
Antinode:A point in a standing wave which has the maximum amplitude.
Node:A point in a standing wave which has no amplitude.

How many nodes and antinodes are in each standing wave?
2 nodes, 1 antinode
3 nodes, 2 antinodes
4 nodes, 3 antinodes

The Doppler Effect• An apparent change in frequency due to relative
motion.
– Examples:• Car music/horn as it drives by• Police sirens• Sonic Boom! (Breaking the sound barrier)• Red shift and blue shift with light waves
