Wave Behavior
Now we know all about waves.How to describe them, measure them and
analyze them.But how do they interact?
![Page 5: 1 Wave Behavior Physics: Chapter 14 Section 2 Mrs. Warren](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649f1d5503460f94c34867/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
5
Wave Behavior
We know that waves travel through mediums.
But what happens when that medium runs out?
![Page 6: 1 Wave Behavior Physics: Chapter 14 Section 2 Mrs. Warren](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649f1d5503460f94c34867/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

Boundary Behavior
The behavior of a wave when it reaches the end of its medium is called the wave’s BOUNDARY BEHAVIOR.
When one medium ends and another begins, that is called a boundary.
The speed of a mechanical wave depends only on the properties of the medium it passes through.
![Page 7: 1 Wave Behavior Physics: Chapter 14 Section 2 Mrs. Warren](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649f1d5503460f94c34867/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
7
Fixed End
One type of boundary that a wave may encounter is that it may be attached to a fixed end.
In this case, the end of the medium will not be able to move.
What is going to happen if a wave pulse goes down this string and encounters the fixed end?
![Page 8: 1 Wave Behavior Physics: Chapter 14 Section 2 Mrs. Warren](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649f1d5503460f94c34867/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
8
Fixed End
Here the incident pulse is an upward pulse.
The incident pulse is a wave that strikes the boundary.
The energy that the incident pulse has when it reaches the boundary has to be REFLECTED. Why?
![Page 9: 1 Wave Behavior Physics: Chapter 14 Section 2 Mrs. Warren](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649f1d5503460f94c34867/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
9
Fixed End
In this instance, the reflected pulse is upside-down. It is inverted.
The reflected pulse has the same speed, wavelength, and amplitude as the incident pulse.
The reflected pulse can be upward or downward (inverted)…this will depend upon the thickness of the medium and the boundary situation.
![Page 10: 1 Wave Behavior Physics: Chapter 14 Section 2 Mrs. Warren](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649f1d5503460f94c34867/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
10
Free End
Another boundary type is when a wave’s medium is attached to a stationary object as a free end.
In this situation, the end of the medium is allowed to slide up and down.
What would happen in this case?
![Page 11: 1 Wave Behavior Physics: Chapter 14 Section 2 Mrs. Warren](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649f1d5503460f94c34867/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
11
Free End
Here the reflected pulse is not inverted.It is identical to the incident pulse, except
it is moving in the opposite direction.The speed, wavelength, and amplitude
are the same as the incident pulse.
![Page 12: 1 Wave Behavior Physics: Chapter 14 Section 2 Mrs. Warren](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649f1d5503460f94c34867/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Examples of Reflected Waves
Two types of Reflected Waves
The picture to the right is an example of an incident wave reflecting upwardly from its boundary.

14
Change in Medium
Our third boundary condition is when the medium of a wave changes. [There are 2 types]
Think of a thin rope attached to a thicker rope. The point where the two ropes are attached is the boundary.
At this point, a wave pulse will transfer from one medium to another.
What will happen here?
![Page 15: 1 Wave Behavior Physics: Chapter 14 Section 2 Mrs. Warren](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649f1d5503460f94c34867/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
Change in Medium
In this situation part of the wave is reflected, and part of the wave is transmitted.
Part of the wave energy is transferred to the more dense medium, and part is reflected.
The transmitted pulse is upright, while the reflected pulse is inverted.
![Page 16: 1 Wave Behavior Physics: Chapter 14 Section 2 Mrs. Warren](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649f1d5503460f94c34867/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16
Change in Medium
The speed and wavelength of the reflected wave remain the same, but the amplitude decreases.
The speed, wavelength, and amplitude of the transmitted pulse are all smaller than in the incident pulse.
![Page 17: 1 Wave Behavior Physics: Chapter 14 Section 2 Mrs. Warren](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649f1d5503460f94c34867/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Change in Medium
What happens to the pulses when energy is transferred from a more dense medium to a less dense medium?
What happens to the speed, wavelength, and amplitude of the transmitted pulse?
What happens to the speed, wavelength, and amplitude of the reflected pulse?
17
![Page 18: 1 Wave Behavior Physics: Chapter 14 Section 2 Mrs. Warren](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649f1d5503460f94c34867/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
18
Wave Interaction
Suppose a pulse traveling down a spring meets a reflected pulse coming back.
In this case, 2 waves exist in the same place in the medium at the same time.
Principle of Superposition
![Page 19: 1 Wave Behavior Physics: Chapter 14 Section 2 Mrs. Warren](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649f1d5503460f94c34867/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
19
Constructive Interference
When two waves meet while traveling along the same medium it is called INTERFERENCE. [This is a result of superposition of 2 or more waves]
Let’s consider two waves moving towards each other, both having a positive upward amplitude.
What will happen when they meet?
![Page 20: 1 Wave Behavior Physics: Chapter 14 Section 2 Mrs. Warren](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649f1d5503460f94c34867/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
20
Constructive InterferenceThey will ADD together to produce a
greater amplitude.This is known as CONSTRUCTIVE
INTERFERENCE.
![Page 21: 1 Wave Behavior Physics: Chapter 14 Section 2 Mrs. Warren](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649f1d5503460f94c34867/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
21
Destructive Interference
Now let’s consider the opposite, two waves moving towards each other, one having a positive (upward) and one a negative (downward) amplitude.
What will happen when they meet?
![Page 22: 1 Wave Behavior Physics: Chapter 14 Section 2 Mrs. Warren](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649f1d5503460f94c34867/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
22
Destructive InterferenceThis time when they add together they
will produce a smaller amplitude.This is know as DESTRUCTIVE
INTERFERENCE.

Standing Waves
What is a standing wave? A wave that appears to be standing still.Generating a wave, but the wave doesn't
propagate. Examples: Vibrating a string or cord. Standing Wave vs. Moving WaveWe need to look at what a node and antinode
are.

these waves?31

Refraction
Reflection involves a change in direction of waves when they bounce off a barrier.
Refraction of waves involves a change in the direction of waves as they pass from one medium to another.
Refraction, or the bending of the path of the waves, is accompanied by a change in speed and wavelength of the waves.

Diffraction
If particles are thrown at a barrier with holes, the particles will either reflect off the barrier or pass straight through the holes.
However, they do not pass straight through.
What happens?

Diffraction
The spreading of waves around the edge of a barrier is called diffraction.
A more scientific definition: Diffraction refers to various phenomena which occur when a wave encounters an obstacle.
