W31W Waves

Audio/Visual, Discussion | This course is completed

[NEW COURSE] Waves – from sound waves, light waves, water waves, and seismic waves to gravity waves – surround us all the time. Some we are consciously aware of, others not. Some we understand and others not so much. We will discuss many curious natural wave phenomena, most of them easily observed, with explanations tailored to non-scientists but with solid scientific underpinning.
