About This Lesson

Watch a string vibrate in slow motion. Wiggle the end of the string and make waves, or adjust the frequency and amplitude of an oscillator. Adjust the damping and tension. The end can be fixed, loose, or open;
Sample Learning Goals
•Discuss wave properties using common vocabulary.
•Predict the behavior of waves through varying medium and at reflective endpoints.

This is a nice simulation for students to learn about waves. Thanks!
