Introduction to Waves

The video tutorial introduces the concept of waves, focusing on mechanical waves such as sound, seismic, and waves on a string. It explains how waves transfer energy without moving matter, using examples like waves on a spring. The tutorial distinguishes between transverse and longitudinal waves, highlighting their propagation directions. It also discusses wave amplitude and its relation to energy. The video concludes with a review of the key concepts covered.
