Summary of 5.1 Ondas y clasificación

00:00:00 - 00:00:00

This video reviews waves, discussing their definition and classification according to medium. Waves can be categorized as material or electromagnetic, with material waves requiring a medium to propagate. Sound waves, for example, require air or water to propagate, while seismic waves require a terrestrial surface to propagate. Finally, the video discusses longitudinal and transverse waves, discussing how they travel in relation to the direction of propagation.

• 00:00:00 In this video, we'll review waves, including the definition of an Onda, and discuss their classification according to medium: Solid, Liquid, or Gas. Waves can be mechanically or electromagnetically mediated, and can be categorized according to their medium: Material or electromagnetic waves. Material waves require a medium to propagate, and are characterized by waves travelling in a solid, liquid, or gas. Sound requires air or water to propagate, while waves such as seismic waves require a terrestrial surface to propagate. Finally, we'll discuss longitudinal and transverse waves. Longitudinal waves travel in parallel to the direction of movement of the wave, while transverse waves vibrate perpendicular to the direction of propagation.
