High school teacher Kate Nichols explains that wave energy is equal to the amplitude of a wave. Looks at different scenarios where we may notice that wave energy is being conserved or not. The conversion of wave energy into another type...

Paul Andersen explains how waves interact with objects and other waves. When a wave hits a fixed object, it will be reflected and inverted. When a wave hits a free object, it will be reflected without being inverted. [6:24]

In this video, Paul Andersen explains how constructive and destructive interference can create interference patterns. Interference patterns can be created by all types of waves, including water, sound, and light. A classic experiment...

This lesson will define interference and distinguish retroactive interference from proactive interference in learning. Also examined are the roles of repression, suppression, and consolidation in memory.

A video with definitions and examples of inference and diffractions.

David explains what beat frequency means, how to find it, and solves a sample problem involving beat frequency. [11:48]

This lesson will define and analyze the relevance of androcentricity, gynocentricity, overgeneralizing, gender blindness, double standards, and interference in sociology. It is 4 of 4 in the series titled "Gender and Research."

It appears that energy is destroyed at the points of destructive interference and created at the points of constructive interference. So, the law of conservation of energy appears to be violated. But this is not correct. The energy is...

What happens when you pass a beam of light through a screen with two slits? What about when you send electrons through there? Find out about diffraction patterns formed in the double-slit experiment, and where quantum mechanics fits into...
