Light doesn’t act like just a wave or a particle—it shows properties of both. This wave particle duality is a core idea in modern physics. From double-slit experiments to photon behaviour in solar panels, understanding light helps explain everything from rainbows to quantum theory.
This lesson plan explores how vibrations can reinforce each other and create fascinating wave patterns in the air, in strings, and even in bridges. With clear explanations, hands-on tasks, and creative projects, this is a brilliant way to help learners understand the science of resonance and standing waves – and why it matters in the real world.
Sound is energy moving through particles as waves, and physics explains exactly how that works. From how vibrations create noise to the maths behind frequency and resonance, this article explores how the science of sound connects to what we hear every day.
