Wave BEHAVIOR. Section3:. WAVE BEHAVIOU.
starter. Wave behavior • Waves act in many different ways (ex. sound waves and light waves), and may produce a: — Refection Rcfrö<töon Interference.
Section3: wave behavior. Essential questions How are wave reflected and refracted at boundaries between medium? How does the principle of superposition apply to the phenomenon of interference?.

Rigid boundaries. Vincident Vreflected. Rigid boundaries When a wave pulse hits a rigid boundary, the energy is reflected back, as shown in Figure 14. The wall is the boundary of a new medium through which the wave attempts to pass. Instead of pass- ing through, the pulse is reflected from the wall with almost exactly the same amplitude as the pulse of the incident wave. Thus, almost all the wave's energy is reflected back. Very little energy is transmitted into the wall. Also note that the pulse is inverted..

Principle of Superposition When two waves exist in the same place in the medium at the same time the displacement of the medium is equal to sum of the two individual wave displacements crest + crest a trough • trough crest trough a resunant amplitude 2a c ive resultant amplitude constructive resultant amplitude = O destructive.
Wave Interference - the result of the superposition of two or more waves Destructive - when two waves with opposite amplitudes meet, If these are equal amplitudes then the point that they meet (node) does not move Constructive - when two waves with amplitudes in the same direction meet, Produces an a point where the largest amount of displacement occurs (antinode), When two equal pulses meet, there is a point, called the node (N), where the medium remains undisturbed (a). Constructive interference results in maximum interference at the antinode (A) (b). If the opposite pulses have unequal amplitudes, cancellation is incomplete (c)..
