Waves Project
General Information on Waves
The nature, properties and behaviors of waves are discussed and illustrated; the unique nature of a standing wave is introduced and explained.
http://www.physicsclassroom.com/Class/waves/wavestoc.html
Physics of Music
The nature of sound as a longitudinal, mechanical pressure wave is explained and the properties of sound are discussed. Wave principles of resonance and standing waves are applied in an effort to analyze the physics of musical instruments.

Light Waves and Colour
The behavior of light waves is introduced and discussed; polarization, color, diffraction and interference are introduced as supporting evidence of the wave nature of light. Color perception is discussed in detail
