Zona Land: Wave Interference 2
written by Edward Zobel
This applet, by Zona Land, demonstrates basic wave superposition through an interactive simulation. The user selects two initial waveforms, moves them together, and views the resulting interference. Colorful displays and brief explanations help explain what is happening on the screen.
