Wave Modeling and Wave addition (Inquiry Based) |
Description
|
I have divided the learning goals into two activities.
1 Wave Representation Learning Goals:
Students will be able to think about waves as a function of time, space or space-time and explain why waves might be represented in these different ways.
2 Superposition of Waves Learning Goals:
Students will be able to: Define harmonic, determine the relationship between the harmonics; Explain the relationship between harmonics and the corresponding wave function; Predict what happens when more than one wave is present.
These activities are designed to follow my activity using Waves on a String |
