Thinking Problems in Oscillations and Waves

Curated by ACT

A series of thought-provoking, multichoice questions from the University of Maryland on the topic of oscillations and waves. Equations for calculating the period of motion for masses on springs, pendulums, sounds, and waves on a string are provided. A downloadable software program on the topic is also included.
