There are two basic forms of wave motion, for mechanical waves. These are longitudinal and transverse waves.

When you get lissagous figure in physics?

Lissajous figures are observed when two simple harmonic motions are perpendicular to each other. These figures can be generated by plotting the motion of a point on a plane as it moves according to the two harmonic motions. They are commonly seen in the study of oscillations and wave phenomena.

What information needed to find the speed of a wave?

To find the speed of a wave, you need to know the frequency of the wave (number of oscillations per second) and the wavelength of the wave (distance between two consecutive points in phase). The speed of a wave is calculated by multiplying the frequency of the wave by its wavelength.

What are the two kinds of fields that make up a light wave?

Electric field and magnetic field are the two kinds of fields that make up a light wave. These fields oscillate perpendicular to each other and propagate through space as an electromagnetic wave.

When two waves combine to make a wave with a larger amplitude is called?

When two waves combine to create a wave with a larger amplitude, it is called constructive interference. This occurs when the peaks and troughs of the two waves align, enhancing the overall amplitude of the resulting wave.
