Electromagnetic waves or radiation.
"Light," however, generally refers to that portion of the EM spectrum that our eyes can detect.
P-Waves (Primary Waves) S-Waves (Secondary Waves) Surface Waves
Another word for brain waves is "electroencephalogram (EEG) signals".
Refraction is the bending of light waves when they pass through another substance. This phenomenon occurs due to a change in the speed of light as it travels from one medium to another, causing the light waves to change direction.
Refraction is the bending of light waves as they travel from one transparent medium to another, such as air to water or glass. This change in the speed of light causes the light waves to change direction at the surface between the two media.
When light waves pass from one medium to another, they may be refracted, reflected, or both. Refraction occurs when the speed of light changes as it enters a new medium, causing the light to bend. Reflection occurs when the light waves bounce off the surface of the new medium.
earthquake wave or shock wave
light waves that are out of phase with one another

diffraction
Refraction is the bending of light waves when they pass through another substance. This phenomenon occurs due to a change in the speed of light as it travels from one medium to another, causing the light waves to change direction.
mechanical waves
Diffraction is a typical phenomenon for all sorts of waves. So is interference - another clue that light is made of waves.
Oscillation.
Refraction is the bending of light waves as they travel from one transparent medium to another, such as air to water or glass. This change in the speed of light causes the light waves to change direction at the surface between the two media.
When light waves pass from one medium to another, they may be refracted, reflected, or both. Refraction occurs when the speed of light changes as it enters a new medium, causing the light to bend. Reflection occurs when the light waves bounce off the surface of the new medium.
The bending of light waves when they pass through another substance is called refraction. This phenomenon occurs because the speed of light changes when it travels from one medium to another, causing the light waves to change direction. The amount of bending depends on the difference in refractive index between the two substances.
