Superposition and Interference
Superposition occurs when two or more waves pass through each other. When two or more waves superimpose, the amplitudes are added together. It creates constructive interference or destructive interference.

The Newton ring The interference of two reflections causes Newton rings. We can observe the Newton Rings when light is reflected from a plano-convex lens of a long focal length placed in contact with a plane glass plate. A thin … more
A Voronoi diagram is a partitioning of a plane into regions based on the distance to points in a specific subset of the plane. That point set is specified beforehand. And regions(Voronoi cells) are consisting of all points closer to … more

This simulation ignored the effects of friction. Simple harmonic oscillation In everyday life, we see a lot of movements that repeated the same oscillation. Like below, shaky or suspended objects are doing this oscillation. Clock pendulum An object suspended in … more
Gravity acts on all objects. Suppose an object is placed on an inclined plane. This object is subjected to a force that slips downward by gravity. If the slope is θ, then the magnitude of this force is the product … more
Igneous rocks are rocks formed from molten magma. The material is made liquid by the heat inside the Earth’s mantle. Igneous rock occurs in two ways. Slow cooling: Igneous rock formed from magma that has become solid inside the earth … more
Like this simulation, if you drill a hole in the earth and throw it in, you can send it to the other side of the earth. This simulation ignores the effects of friction. The earth is assumed to be a … more
Even if the force works, the speed does not change? When an object moves linearly at a constant velocity, the force applied to the object is zero because there is no change in velocity. If so, is there a motion … more
The diffraction grating is a transparent plate with very narrow lines on the surface. Light (photons) like to go in the same phase. In the same phase, constructive interference occurs. If the phases are different, the waves cancel each other … more
Adjust the wavelength of light to choose the color of light you want. If you adjust the angle of reflection correctly, the phases of the light may coincide. That angle is the angle at which light is reflected by interference. … more
The Lissajous figures The Lissajous figures is a planar shape drawn by the following equation by the parameter t: x = A cos (Bt + C)y = D sin (Et + F) If B:E is an integer ratio, you can … more
