We see the beauty of the world because of light wave and we can hear
because of sound waves. Information Technology without the utilization of radio
waves and microwaves is impossible.
In this Chapter we will unravel more the World of Waves, how it started, its
kinds and its properties.
After going through this Learning Material, you are expected to:
Contentment is the Equilibrium between the enjoyment of life now and the
anticipation of what is to come.

Oscillatory Motion
“Oscillatory motion is the repeated to and
from movement of a system from its equilibrium
position. Every system at rest is in its equilibrium
position. At this point, no external force is acting on
it. Therefore, the net force acting on the system is
zero. Now, if this system is displaced a little from
its fixed point, a force acts on the system which
tries to bring back the system to its fixed point.
This force is the restoring force and it gives rise to
oscillations or vibrations.”

Waves
Mechanical Waves
Mechanical waves are defined as the waves which needed any type of
medium for propagation. It is a wave that is not capable of transmitting its energy
through a vacuum. Mechanical waves require a medium in order to transport their
energy from one location to another. A sound wave is an example of a mechanical
wave.
Examples of Mechanical Wave
Slinky waves
Water waves
Stadium waves
Jump rope waves
Longitudinal wave
A longitudinal wave is a wave in which particles of the medium move in a
direction parallel to the direction that the wave moves. Longitudinal waves are
always characterized by particle motion being parallel to wave motion. Figure below
shows how longitudinal wave move.
Examples of Longitudinal Wave
Sound waves
Tsunami waves
Earthquake
P - waves
Ultra sounds
Vibrations in gas
Oscillations in spring
Internal water waves and
Waves in slink
Transverse wave
A transverse wave is a wave in which particles of the medium move in a
direction perpendicular to the direction that the wave moves.
Examples of Transverse Wave
Light wave
Audience wave
Radio waves
Television waves
Visible light waves
Ultraviolet waves
Vibrating guitar strings
Magnetic waves
LESSON 3 SINUSOIDAL WAVE AND SINUSOIDAL EQUATION
Sinusoidal Equation
y(x,t)=Asin(kx−ωt+ϕ)
x = space coordinate
t = time coordinate
ϕ = phase shift
k= wave number
A = sine wave’s amplitude
ω = angular frequency (2𝜋𝑓)
Frequency: The number of cycles of vibration in a given unit of time. The number
of cycles in a second is one Hertz (Hz), after the German physicist who discovered
it. Therefore, 1Hz equals one cycle per second.

f = frequency
T = period
Period: the time it takes to complete one cycle.

Wave Speed: the speed at which a wave It is related to wavelength, frequency, and
period by the equation:
