Interference Patterns

Mr. Andersen explains interference patterns, which occur when two or more wave fronts interact. He describes how interference patterns can be formed, using examples like sound, water, and light waves. The video covers wave diffraction and the double-slit experiment, demonstrating how light behaves when passing through slits. A PhET simulation is used to show light measurement and interference patterns, highlighting areas of constructive and destructive interference.
