A comprehensive overview of wave physics, covering key concepts such as oscillations, interference, and the doppler effect. It delves into the characteristics of simple harmonic oscillators, wave properties like wavelength and frequency, and the principles of wave interference and superposition. The document also explores the doppler effect, explaining how the perceived frequency of a wave changes when the source or observer is in motion. This resource is valuable for students studying physics, particularly those interested in wave phenomena and their applications.
