Please wait for the animation to completely load.
One of the most interesting phenomena we can explore is that of a superposition of waves. Each panel shows an individual wave that is traveling on a string. Restart.
If these two waves are traveling on the same string, draw the superposition of the two pulses between t = 0 and t = 20 s in 2-s intervals for each animation (position is given in meters and time is given in seconds).
When you have completed the exercise, check your answers with the animations below.
