The video tutorial explains how waves behave when crossing boundaries between different media. It introduces the concept of a medium and discusses how electromagnetic waves can propagate without one. The tutorial provides examples of sound waves moving through air and glass, highlighting how frequency remains constant while wave speed and wavelength change due to medium density differences. It includes calculations to determine wave frequency and speed, demonstrating that increased wavelength results in higher velocity. The video concludes by summarizing the effects of medium changes on wave properties.
