Students will calculate energy, frequency, or wavelength. After calculating, students graph their data and answer analysis questions.

In this thorough lesson, nodes and antinodes are explained and compared to crests and troughs. A "Check Your Understanding," set of questions is included at the end of the lesson with answers.

This online exploration provides an opportunity to identify the different properties of waves and the relationship that exists between energy, wavelength, and frequency. Correlate images from the Hubble Telescope to the wavelength,...

Resource focuses on the relationship between the frequency, wavelength and speed of light. Has a link to an interactive activity relating frequency, wavelength, and energy.

Incredible set of animations demonstrating the Doppler effect and shockwaves resulting from supersonic aircraft.

From a course titled "Structure and Interpretation of Signals and Systems." A discussion of the entire radio spectrum, listing wavelength and frequency values for its various parts. The uses of each region of the radio spectrum is...

Boundary behavior, incident pulse, reflected pulse,and transmitted pulse are explained in this thorough tutorial. Animation and drawings are used to clarify the concepts.

A thorough explanation of the wave equation (Speed = Wavelength * Frequency). A data table and questions to check one's understanding are also part of this lesson.

This physics tutorial explores forced vibration. Includes links to natural frequency, standing wave patterns and fundamental frequency and harmonics.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Students learn what an electromagnetic wave is, gain a feel for the main parts of the spectrum, and work on problems involving basic properties of electromagnetic...

Enter Miss Bupp's class as she teaches a unit on waves. This extensive unit includes lesson plans, videos, assessments, and hands-on activities to make learning about waves and their characteristics fun and engaging.

Acting as part of an overview on quantum theory, this section of the site answers the question, what is a wave? In addition to a definition, several examples and formulas are provided.
