When a wave is reflected at a fixed boundary, it undergoes a phase change of 180 degrees and returns in the opposite direction. This creates interference between the incident and reflected waves, resulting in a standing wave pattern if the incident wave is a continuous wave. The amplitude of the reflected wave depends on the properties of the boundary and the medium through which the wave is traveling.
When a wave hits a boundary, it can be reflected, absorbed, or transmitted through the boundary. The direction of the reflected wave is determined by the angle of incidence and the properties of the boundary material.
When a wave reaches a fixed boundary, it reflects back towards the medium it originated from. The direction of reflection depends on the type of wave and the properties of the boundary. In the case of a fixed boundary, the wave reflects without changing its phase.
When a wave hits a fixed boundary, it reflects back in the opposite direction with the same speed and frequency. The wave may also experience a phase change, depending on the boundary conditions.
An incident wave is a wave that strikes a boundary or obstacle. A reflected wave is a wave that bounces off the boundary or obstacle and travels in the opposite direction.
that depends on the boundary if it is a fixed or hard boundary, there is zero displacement and the reflected wave changes its polarity , i.e. it undergoes 180 deg phase change if it is a flexible or soft boundary, the restoring force is zero and the reflected wave has the same polarity in other words there is no change in phase

Reflected but not inverted
When a wave hits a fixed boundary, it reflects back in the opposite direction with the same speed and frequency. The wave may also experience a phase change, depending on the boundary conditions.

When a wave is partially reflected at a boundary, some of the energy is transmitted into the new medium while the remaining energy is reflected back. This results in a division of energy between the reflected and transmitted waves.
The wave is called a "reflected wave" when it bounces back off the boundary between two different materials.
When a wave reaches a boundary between two media, it can be reflected, transmitted, or absorbed. The amount of each type of behavior depends on the properties of the two media and the angle at which the wave approaches the boundary. Reflection occurs when the wave bounces back into the original medium, transmission happens when the wave continues through the second medium, and absorption involves the wave being absorbed by the boundary.
No, a reflected wave is a wave that bounces off a boundary or obstacle. It is not an incoming wave but rather a wave that has changed direction due to hitting a surface.
When a wave reflects from a fixed boundary, the only change is the direction in which the wave is traveling. The properties of the wave, such as its amplitude and frequency, remain the same.
When a wave is totally reflected at a boundary, its energy is mostly reflected back in the opposite direction. Some of the energy may be absorbed by the boundary or transmitted through it, but the wave largely maintains its energy as it reflects.
