interference of two traveling waves

that can result in a standing wave.

Standing waves may be produced easily in

water, string, and air columns.

Slide 23

Doppler Effect

the change in frequency due to the relative

motion of the wave source and the observer

The observed frequency is higher when the

source and observer are getting closer.

The observed frequency is lower when the

source and observer are getting farther away.

to run simulations of the Doppler Effect.

The Doppler Effect

can be evident for

all types of waves –

including light,

sound, water, etc…
