Ultrasound _ GCSE Physics
The range of human hearing is 20Hz to 20,000Hz. Ultrasound waves are just sound waves with a frequency above 20,000Hz. When ultrasound reaches a boundary between two media with different densities, some are partially reflected back and...

How Is This Standing Wave Possible?
When standing waves are allowed at 15, 30, and 45 hertz on a string, then we should not see a standing wave pattern at 22 hertz. Yet, we do in this demonstration. This explains why.

Transverse and Longitudinal Waves _ GCSE Physics
Waves are vibrations that transfer energy from place to place without matter being transferred. Think of a Mexican wave in a football crowd: the wave moves around the stadium, while each spectator stays in their seat only moving up then...
