Course Description

Overview

Delve into an in-depth exploration of wave physics in this comprehensive lecture from Yale University's Fundamentals of Physics course. Begin with an examination of the general solution to the wave equation, then progress through key concepts such as spatial and temporal periodicity, frequency, and period. Investigate wave energy and power transmission before tackling the Doppler effect. Explore the fascinating phenomenon of wave superposition, including constructive and destructive interference, and witness its application in the double slit experiment. Conclude by studying modes of vibration and their relevance to musical instruments. Gain a thorough understanding of wave properties and behaviors through diverse examples and clear explanations in this 72-minute educational journey.
