All of AQA Waves Explained - A Level Physics REVISION

In this video I go through all of AQA waves for use as A Level Physics revision. This video is not only vitally important for preparing for your exam but it also has essential information for use as an introduction to A Level Physics.
I recap progressive and stationary waves, transverse and longitudinal waves, and mechanical and electromagnetic waves. There are properties of waves you need to know about including; wavelength, frequency, speed, amplitude and time period. There also different wave phenomena you need to understand including; reflection, refraction, diffraction, polarisation, interference, coherence, path difference and total internal reflection.
Don't forget to subscribe on KZread and also sign up to my A Level website to find hundreds more videos.
Thanks for watching,
Lewis

    Excellent summary, thanks. A couple of small points to note (for those that study OCR certainly) when he says the antinode is the place of maximum displacement be careful of how you define antinode in an exam. Better to say the antinode is the where the particles experience a maximum amplitude or the place where the maximum displacement is maximum. All points between nodes will displace to a maximum displacement, but the amplitude varies to a maximum at the anti node. Second point is where he mentions coherent waves when begining on interference/diffraction. He says they are coherrant because they are in phase, that could be misunderstood as a valid definition of coherent. The bit he says after is actually what makes them coherent - they have a constant phase relationship. The amplitude being similar is not relevant to coherency (but is relevant to the diffraction pattern produced). Otherwise an excellent an excellent account!
