Refraction of Water Waves

There’s a new, engaging way to learn and apply your knowledge of science in a dynamic environment. Learn by doing and see the impact of being involved in what you learn.

Observe the motion of water waves. Study how water waves chance when the environment changes. Discover refraction and learn why it occurs.

• Predict how water waves will react when they meet obstacles with varying shapes.
• Use a wave generator to see how waves actually react.
• Discover how the wave speed and wavelength changes when depth of water changes.

App features:
• Use a wave generator to observe how waves react under different conditions.
• Make predictions about wave behavior.
• Watch animations that explain the concepts.
• Test your knowledge with interactive tasks and quizzes.
