1. Reflection • a wave bounces back after hitting a boundary • the law of reflection states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection • means that a wave will bounce off a boundary at the same angle that it came in at
pHet Wave Interferece 2. Refraction • the bending of waves due to a change of speed • as a wave passes from one material to another, they may change speed
3. Diffraction • the process of a wave bending around a corner
4. Interference • results as two or more waves arrive at the same place at the same time • constructive interference • combining two waves to make a bigger wave
destructive interference • two waves combine and make a smaller wave or none at all
5. Absorption • wave enters a material that decreases its energy
