Waves
AIM:
What are the main types of waves?
Several different waves were demonstrated on the spring. Based upon your observations, provide a working
definition of a wave.
What actually moved along the spring (what was transferred by a wave)?
There are two main families of waves:
Mechanical
Electromagnetic
What is a medium?
