The video tutorial explains wave motion, classifying it into two types based on energy transfer and vibration direction. It distinguishes between mechanical waves, which require a medium, and electromagnetic waves, which do not. The tutorial further explores transverse waves, characterized by crests and troughs, and longitudinal waves, characterized by compressions and refractions. It concludes with a discussion on measuring wave properties, including wavelength, amplitude, velocity, frequency, and periodic time, and introduces the law relating wave velocity, frequency, and wavelength.
