Wave BEHAVIOR

Wave Behavior Now we know all about waves. How to describe them, measure them and analyze them. But how do they interact?

Change in Medium What happens when the medium of a wave changes. Think of a thin rope attached to a thick rope. The point where the two ropes are attached is the boundary. At this point, a wave pulse will transfer from one medium to another. What will happen here?

Change in Medium Less to more dense In this situation part of the wave is reflected, and part of the wave is transmitted. Part of the wave energy is transferred to the more dense medium, and part is reflected. The transmitted pulse is upright, while the reflected pulse is inverted.

Change in Medium The speed and wavelength of the reflected wave remain the same, but the amplitude decreases. The speed, wavelength, and amplitude of the transmitted pulse are all smaller than in the incident pulse.

Change in Medium Animation Test your understanding

Wave Interaction All we have left to discover is how waves interact with each other. When two waves meet while traveling along the same medium it is called INTERFERENCE.

Constructive Interference Let’s consider two waves moving towards each other, both having a positive upward amplitude. What will happen when they meet?

Constructive Interference They will ADD together to produce a greater amplitude. This is known as CONSTRUCTIVE INTERFERENCE.

Destructive Interference Now let’s consider the opposite, two waves moving towards each other, one having a positive (upward) and one a negative (downward) amplitude. What will happen when they meet?

Destructive Interference This time when they add together they will produce a smaller amplitude. This is know as DESTRUCTIVE INTERFERENCE.

Interference

Check Your Understanding Which points will produce constructive interference and which will produce destructive interference? Constructive G, J, M, N Destructive H, I, K, L, O
