About this Simulation

This simulation models how waves reflect when they encounter a wall or fixed boundary. Learners can adjust wave properties such as velocity, amplitude, and frequency, then observe in real-time how reflected waves interact with incident waves. Explore the formation of standing wave patterns and understand the physics of wave superposition at boundaries.

Learning objectives: Understand how waves reflect from fixed boundaries and change phase | Observe and analyse standing wave formation from superposition of incident and reflected waves | Predict wave behavior by manipulating frequency, wavelength, and boundary conditions
