Wave Interference is an easy to use, Java based simulation application designed to make waves with a dripping faucet, audio speaker, or laser. You can add a second source or a pair of slits to create an interference pattern.The sample learning goals are:Find points of constructive and destructive interference by eye, and by using the detectorsPredict wave patterns created by using slits.Predict the pattern of a reflected waveRelate two dimensional representations of waves to three dimensional wavesExplain wave patterns from interfering waves using different sources and spacingRecognize the Doppler effect and predict the change in frequency that occursIn the light panel, predict the locations of the fringes that appear on the screen using d sin(?) = m?. Use the tape measure to verify your predictions.Wave simulations made easy with the help of this tool.
