Wave Mechanics

The video tutorial introduces waves, explaining their properties and types, including mechanical and electromagnetic waves. It covers the characteristics of waves such as amplitude, wavelength, and frequency, and discusses sound waves as longitudinal waves that require a medium to travel. The tutorial highlights the differences in wave speed across various media and provides a qualitative understanding of wave behavior.

What is a sine wave and how is it related to simple harmonic motion?

What is the relationship between frequency and wavelength in wave motion?

How does the speed of sound vary in different mediums?
