Have you ever wondered
The big picture
What does a wave transfer copycgrahamphysicscom 2016
Did you know there are 2
groups of waves with 2
different types of waves
Mechanical waves have
two subgroups
Transverse and
Longitudinal Waves
The two groups are Mechanical waves and electromagnetic waves
(EM)

Practical Modelling waves
The wave travels away from the source The direction of the wave is at right angles to the movement of the source In a transverse wave the coils do not travel horizontally each coil of the Slinky just vibrates up and down
LO Understand the similarities and differences between types of waves
source moves up and down
direction of wave
coils vibrate up and down
Direction of energy transfer copycgrahamphysicscom 2016
Definitions bull Amplitude (A) displacement from rest position
bull Wavelength (λ) the distance between a particular point on a wave and the same point on the next wave
bull Frequency (f) the number of waves passing a particular point

Wave front
bull A wave front is an imaginary line or surface that joined all adjacent points which have the same phase of vibration on the wave
bull Any two points on a wave are said to be in phase when they have completed identical fractions of their periodic motion

bull A wave front is an imaginary line or surface that joined all adjacent points which have the same phase of vibration on the wave
bull Any two points on a wave are said to be in phase when they have completed identical fractions of their periodic motion
