#Physics 2: Wave Interference and Standing Waves - Study Guide 🚀
Welcome! This guide is designed to help you ace your Physics 2 exam by focusing on wave interference and standing waves. Let's dive in!
#Wave Interference
#
Key Concept
Interaction of Wave Pulses
- Wave interference occurs when two or more waves interact, combining their amplitudes. Think of it like waves meeting and merging! 🌊
- Unlike objects, waves pass through each other when they interact, overlapping in the process.
