Introduction to Wave Properties
- Waves are disturbances that transfer energy from one point to another without the transport of matter.
- The primary properties of waves include wavelength, frequency, amplitude, and speed.
- These properties describe the behavior and nature of waves in different media.
Wavelength (λ)
- Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive points in phase on a wave, such as two cre
Introduction to Waves
- A wave is a disturbance or vibration that travels through a medium or space, transferring energy.
- Waves are classified into two main types: transverse and longitudinal, based on the direction of particle motion relative to wave propagation.
- Waves can travel through various media like solids, liquids, and gases.
Transverse Waves
- In transverse waves, particles of the medium move perpendicularly to the direction of wav
