§15-1 Generation & Propagation of a mechanical Wave I. Mechanical wave The propagation of a mechanical vibration in an elastic medium. The conditions of generation and propagation of a M-waves: 1. There must be a vibrating center called source of wave. 2. There must be an elastic medium propagating wave.
II. Classification Transverse wave:the individual particles of medium vibrate in the direction that is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagating. Longitudinal wave:the individual particles of medium vibrate in the direction that is parallel to the direction of wave propagating.

In some kind of uniform solid, Transverse wave: Longitudinal wave: or In some kind of uniform gas or liquid, longitudinal wave can be propagated only. Longitudinal wave:
:The ratio of molar capacity In ideal gas, In a stretched string , Transverse wave: T :the tension in string :the mass per unit length of the string

Ek=Ep =E= 0 when the particle locate in its maximum displacement. E is not conservative for any particle. A particle absorbs energy continuously from its contiguous particle in the front of it and gives off the energy to the particle behind it.----energy propagation

§15-5 Huygens’ Principle I. Huygens’ principle (hypothesis) All points on a wave front serve as point sources of spherical secondary wavelets. After a time t, the envelope of these secondary wavelets will be the new wave front. It provides a geometrical method to find the new wave front at later instant from known shape of a portion of a wave front at some instant. It can be used to discuss various problems concerning the propagation of waves.
