17.3: Behavior of Waves

Reflection Reflection occurs when a wave bounces off a surface that it cannot pass through. Reflection does not change the speed or frequency of a wave, but the wave can be flipped upside down.

Refraction Refraction is the bending of a wave as it enters a new medium at an angle. As an ocean wave approaches the shore at an angle, the wave bends, or refracts. The shallower water can be considered a new medium. As one side of each wave enters shallower water before the other, that side slows down and the wave bends.

Diffraction Diffraction is the bending of a wave as it moves around an obstacle or passes through a narrow opening. The pattern produced is very similar to the circular ripples you see when a pebble is tossed into a pond. A wave diffracts more if its wavelength is large compared to the size of an opening or obstacle.

Interference Interference occurs when two or more waves overlap and combine together. Two types of interference are constructive interference and destructive interference.

Two Types of Interference Constructive interference occurs when two or more waves combine to produce a wave with a larger displacement. Destructive interference occurs when two or more waves combine to produce a wave with a smaller displacement.
