📖 1. Travelling waves and wave speed relations

🔑 Key Concepts & Definitions

  • Travelling wave : A travelling wave is a disturbance that propagates through space, carrying energy and momentum without transporting matter overall.
  • Transverse wave : A transverse wave is a wave where particle displacement is perpendicular to the direction of propagation.
  • Longitudinal wave : A longitudinal wave is a wave where particle displacement is parallel to the direction of propagation.
  • Wavelength : Wavelength is the spatial period, measured as the distance between two successive points in phase.
  • Frequency : Frequency is the number of oscillations per second, measured in hertz (Hz).

Travelling wave — definition?

A disturbance propagating energy without matter transport.

Wave speed relation?

v = f λ, relates speed, frequency, wavelength.

Transverse wave — displacement?

Displacement is perpendicular to propagation direction.

Longitudinal wave — displacement?

Displacement is parallel to propagation direction.

Wavefronts — purpose?

Visualize wave propagation and phase.

Reflection — wave property?

Wave bounces, angle of incidence equals angle of reflection.
