Page describing the behaviour of waves.
The site explains what happen to electromagnetic waves when it is transmitted and come in contact with a boundary.
Why does your reflection in a spoon appear upside down? Animation showing reflection from a convex mirror and spherical aberration.
Diagrams showing how sound is reflected and standing waves.
Explains law of reflection including interactive Java tutorials. Links to ideas of fluorescence, diffraction, polarization, scattering and virtual microscopy.
This applet models resonance and interference effects as waves pass through various layers. There are two modes: Electromagnetic, which models the transmission of light through multi-layer films, and ...
