 LEARNING TARGETS

I can describe how waves behave.

I can distinguish among reflection,
refraction, diffraction and interference.
How do waves behave?
Which wave property is exhibited by water waves?

Reflection is the abrupt change in the direction

of propagation of a wave that strikes the
boundary between two different media.
REFLECTION

Which wave property is exhibited by water waves?

Refraction is the change in

direction of propagation of
a wave when the wave
passes from one medium
into another, and changes
its speed.
REFRACTION
REFRACTION
 Which wave property is exhibited by water waves?

Diffraction is a change in
the direction of wave
caused by the presence of
an obstacle in its path.
DIFFRACTION
Which wave property is exhibited by water waves?

Interference occurs when

two waves meet while
traveling along the same
medium.
What happens when a crest meets another
crest?
What happens when a crest meets another
crest?
