Learning Objectives. By the end of this section, you will be able to: Model a wave, moving with a constant wave velocity, with a mathematical expression. Calculate the velocity and acceleration of the medium. Show how the velocity of the medium differs from the wave velocity (propagation velocity)
In the previous section, we described periodic waves by their characteristics of wavelength, period, amplitude, and wave speed of the wave. Waves can also be described by the motion of the particles of the medium through which the waves move.

Introduction to Oscillations and Waves covers the basic mathematics and physics of oscillatory and wave phenomena. By the end of the course, students should be able to explain why oscillations appear in many near equilibrium systems, the various mathematical properties of those oscillations in various contexts, how ….
