| Objective | ||
| In this lesson students learn about the principal of superposition of waves. There will be two components to the lesson, one involving a physical investigation using sound waves and a second using computer simulation. | ||
| Prescribed Focus Area | Skills Development | Content |
P2 A student applies the processes that are used to test and validate models, theories and laws of science with particular emphasis on first-hand investigations in physics |
P12.1 Students perform first-hand investigations |
D2.5 Students will learn to describe the principle of superposition in sound and compare the resulting waves to the original waves. |
