In this video Paul Andersen compares and contrasts transverse and longitudinal waves. Waves carry energy through oscillations. In transverse waves the oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of the wave and in longitudinal they...

There are over one billion cars in the world right now, getting people from point A to point B. But cars aren't just a mode of transportation; they also teach an excellent lesson in chemistry. Cynthia Chubbuck navigates the intricate...

Four mechanical wave graphs are introduced and used to understand and demonstrate transverse waves, longitudinal waves, wavelength, and period.

In this video Paul Andersen details the characteristics of electromagnetic waves. Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves that can move through both mediums and vacuums. The electric and magnetic fields oscillate perpendicular to...

Waves transfer energy from one place to another. You should already know how to describe them in terms of frequency, wavelength and amplitude In this video we’re going to look at the two ways they can be classified. Waves are produced as...

An introduction to mechanical waves which are defined and demonstrated. The fact that the medium is not displaced is demonstrated. Both transverse waves and longitudinal waves are also defined and demonstrated.

The video explains two important features of a wave: the frequency and the time period. It uses a visual representation of a transverse wave and a longitudinal wave to show the peaks, troughs, amplitude, and wavelength of a wave. The...

The pigments in our food all get destroyed on their way through our digestive system...so where do the colors of our poop and pee come from?

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...

Waves are cool. The more we learn about waves, the more we learn about a lot of things in physics. Everything from earthquakes to music! Ropes can tell us a lot about how traveling waves work so, in this episode of Crash Course Physics,...

In this video Paul Andersen explains how the energy of a wave if directly related to the amplitude of a wave. The wave energy of a sound wave is the volume of the wave.

Let's learn about the 7 wonders of the world!

The video is a lecture that explains the two features of a wave, namely wavelength and amplitude. It starts with a demonstration of a transverse wave and illustrates how the wave propagates while oscillating. The peaks and troughs of the...

The video explains the basics of electromagnetic waves, including their definition as transverse waves that transfer energy from a source to an absorber. It discusses the seven general sections of the electromagnetic spectrum, going from...

"Dance for PD® is an innovative therapy that uses movement and music to help people with Parkinson’s disease hold off the ravages of the condition. Originating at the famed Mark Morris Dance group in Brooklyn, New York, Dance for PD®...

In this video Paul Andersen explains how the wavelength is the distance between oscillations in a wave. In a longitudinal wave this might be the distance between areas of compression. In a transverse wave it might be the distance between...

Transverse & Longitudinal Waves | Waves | Physics | FuseSchool Waves transfer energy from one place to another. You should already know how to describe them in terms of frequency, wavelength and amplitude. In this video we’re going to...

This video is a lecture about waves, specifically transverse and longitudinal waves. The speaker defines what a wave is and explains how it transfers energy without any matter being transferred. The video then delves into the differences...

My gift to you this Christmas is 25 British Bitesize Lessons. Lesson #18 is about the word TURN.

Wave Motion | Waves | Physics | FuseSchool All waves can transfer energy from one place to another without transferring any matter. This is done by a series of disturbances or vibrations that carry the energy. Just like the people in...

Carbon exists in all living things, including proteins, DNA, and fats. When living things exhale, the result is carbon dioxide. As our world develops, we produce more carbon dioxide with the burning of fossil fuels and the use of cars,...

This video discusses the properties that all waves have in common, including amplitude and wavelength. It also demonstrates how to calculate the speed of a wave using the equation v = Fλ, where v is the wave speed, F is the frequency in...

The equation for the speed of a wave is derived. The fact that amplitude, frequency, and wavelength do not affect wave speed is demonstrated. Two different solutions for wave speed are demonstrated.
