Waves: An Interactive Tutorial es un conjunto de 33 ejercicios diseñados para enseñar fundamentos de la dinámica de ondas. Comienza con propiedades ondulatorias muy simples y finaliza con un examen del comportamiento no lineal de las ondas no lineales. El énfasis aquí está en las propiedades de las ondas que son difíciles de ilustrar con una figura estática de libros de texto. Las simulaciones no sustituyen el trabajo de laboratorio. Sin embargo que permiten la visualización de procesos que normalmente no pueden ver (por ejemplo, los campos eléctricos y magnéticos). Permiten visualización de procesos que son demasiado rápidos (por ejemplo, ondas) para seguir en tiempo real o demasiado pequeños para visualizar (por ejemplo, la termodinámica en la escala molecular). Permiten la manipulación de procesos que podrían ser peligrosos (colisiones) o difíciles de experimentar (ondas). Asimismo permiten que la repetición sea fácil. Por todas estas razones, las simulaciones son una excelente manera introducir a los estudiantes a la complejidad de fenómenos ondulatorios.

This Waves Tutorial is also available in English as an OSP item, as an online AAPT/ComPADRE book and in Apple iTunes.  

The JavaScript simulations in this tutorial were developed using the Easy Java/JavaScript Simulations (EjsS) version 5 authoring tool.  Although EjsS is a Java program, it can create stand alone JavaScript programs that run in almost any PC or tablet.

4. The Physical Setting

4F. Motion
  • 6-8: 4F/M4. Vibrations in materials set up wavelike disturbances that spread away from the source. Sound and earthquake waves are examples. These and other waves move at different speeds in different materials.
  • 6-8: 4F/M6. Light acts like a wave in many ways. And waves can explain how light behaves.
  • 6-8: 4F/M7. Wave behavior can be described in terms of how fast the disturbance spreads, and in terms of the distance between successive peaks of the disturbance (the wavelength).
  • 9-12: 4F/H5ab. The observed wavelength of a wave depends upon the relative motion of the source and the observer. If either is moving toward the other, the observed wavelength is shorter; if either is moving away, the wavelength is longer.
  • 9-12: 4F/H6ab. Waves can superpose on one another, bend around corners, reflect off surfaces, be absorbed by materials they enter, and change direction when entering a new material. All these effects vary with wavelength.
  • 9-12: 4F/H6c. The energy of waves (like any form of energy) can be changed into other forms of energy.

11. Common Themes

11B. Models
  • 6-8: 11B/M4. Simulations are often useful in modeling events and processes.

  • F-IF.5 Relate the domain of a function to its graph and, where applicable, to the quantitative relationship it describes.?
  • F-IF.9 Compare properties of two functions each represented in a different way (algebraically, graphically, numerically in tables, or by verbal descriptions).
