Reflection• When a wave bounces off a surface that it cannot
pass through– Ex. – ball can’t pass through a wall, so it bounces off
• Reflection does not change the speed or frequency of a wave, but the wave can be flipped upside down– Fixed boundary reflected wave upside down

Refraction• The bending of a wave as it enters a new medium at
an angle• Occurs when a wave enters a medium at an angle– One side of the wave moves more slowly than the other
side– Refraction applet
– In this case, v = different refractive value for a different medium

Diffraction PhET diffraction applet
• The bending of a wave as it moves around an obstacle or passes through a narrow opening
• A wave diffracts more if its wavelength is large compared to the size of an opening or obstacle– If wavelength < opening/obstacle, then very little
bending– If wavelength > opening/obstacle, then larger bending

Interference• When 2 or more
waves overlap and combine together
• 2 types of interference– Constructive (leads
to increased amplitude)
– Destructive (leads to decreased amplitude)

Constructive interference
• When 2 or more waves combine to produce a wave with a larger displacement (amplitude)

Destructive Interference
• When 2 or more waves combine to produce a wave with a smaller displacement (amplitude)

Standing Waves• A wave that appears to stay in one place – it
does not seem to move through the medium• Examples – plucked guitar string or elastic cord• Node = a stationary point on a standing wave– Complete destructive interference between incoming
and reflected waves• Antinode = a point where a crest or trough
occurs midway between nodes• Forms only if a wavelength or a multiple of half a
wavelength fits exactly into the length of a vibrating cord.
