The water molecules oscillate up and down around their equilibrium positions but they do not move from one point to another along the surface of water. The disturbance created by dropping the stone, however travels outwards.
This type of wave is a periodic and regular disturbance in a medium which does not cause any flow of material but causes the flow of energy and momentum from one point to another.]]> 2021-05-11 14:59:13 UTC https://padlet.com/hamidraza02/qlo1jc7vtjl2jolj/wish/1513707292 hamidraza02 https://padlet.com/hamidraza02/qlo1jc7vtjl2jolj/wish/1513743902 There are different types of waves and not all types require material medium to travel through. We know that light is a type of wave and it can travel through vacuum. Here we will first study different types of waves, learn about their common properties and then study sound waves in particular.]]> 2021-05-11 15:06:32 UTC https://padlet.com/hamidraza02/qlo1jc7vtjl2jolj/wish/1513743902 hamidraza02 https://padlet.com/hamidraza02/qlo1jc7vtjl2jolj/wish/1513750373 A wave is said to be mechanical if a material medium is essential for its propagation. Examples of these types of waves are water waves, waves along a stretched string, seismic waves, sound waves, etc.]]> 2021-05-11 15:07:53 UTC https://padlet.com/hamidraza02/qlo1jc7vtjl2jolj/wish/1513750373 hamidraza02 https://padlet.com/hamidraza02/qlo1jc7vtjl2jolj/wish/1513771266 These are generated due to periodic vibrations in electric and magnetic fields. These waves can propagate through material media, however, material medium is
not essential for their propagation.]]> 2021-05-11 15:12:00 UTC https://padlet.com/hamidraza02/qlo1jc7vtjl2jolj/wish/1513771266 hamidraza02 https://padlet.com/hamidraza02/qlo1jc7vtjl2jolj/wish/1513795299 The properties described here are valid for all types of waves, however, here they are described for mechanical waves.]]> 2021-05-11 15:16:08 UTC https://padlet.com/hamidraza02/qlo1jc7vtjl2jolj/wish/1513795299 hamidraza02 https://padlet.com/hamidraza02/qlo1jc7vtjl2jolj/wish/1513798358 Amplitude of a wave motion is the largest displacement of a particle of the
medium through which the wave is propagating, from its rest position.
