ACTIVITY TIME!!
ACTIVITY: SCAN TO KNOW!
Instruction:
• The class will be divided into three (3) groups
through counting.
• Each group will be given an envelop containing QR
codes.
• Using the QR code scanner, each group will scan
and arrange the letters.
• Each group will have one (1) representative to
share their ideas about the words they have
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
At the end of the lesson, you are expected to:
1.Define the Wave interference;
2.Explain the two types of Wave interference;
and
3.Appreciate the application of wave
interference in various fields
Questions:
1. What happens when you drop a single pebble
into the water?
2. How do the waves propagate through the water?
3. What happens when you drop two pebbles into
the water at the same time?
4. How do the waves from each pebble interact
with each other?
WAVE
INTERFERENCE
Wave interference
Wave interference is the phenomenon
that occurs when two waves meet while
traveling along the same medium. The
interference of wave causes the medium
to take on a shape that results from the
net effect of the two individual waves
upon the partices of the medium.
CONSTRUCTIVE
INTERFERENCE
Constructive interference
A type of interference that
occurs at any location along the
medium where the two
interfering waves have a
displacement in the same
direction.
DESTRUCTIVE
INTERFERENCE
Destructive interference
A type of interference that
occurs at any location along
the medium where the two
interfering waves have a
displacement in the opposite
direction.
What are some limitations
or challenges of observing
wave interference in a basin
of water?
How could you use wave
interference to create a
specific pattern or design?
Application of wave
interference
Wave interference is used in various field
such as acoustics, optics, and quantum
physics, and wireless communication.
In acoustics
Wave interference is a
fundamental principle
behind noise-cancelling
headphones. These devices
use destructive interference
to cancel out unwanted
ambient noise.
In the field of optics
Wave interference is used
in interferometry, a
technique that allows
scientists to make precise
measurements of distances
and displacements.
In quantum physics
The double-slit experiment is
when particles such as electrons
or photons are sent through two
slits, they create an interference
pattern on a screen behind the
slits, as if they were waves rather
than particles.
In wireless communication
Wave interference can
cause problems and
provide solutions. It can
either can cause loss of
information or to boost
signal strength.
Quiz bee time!
Instructions:
• The same group from the previous activity
will work together.
• Each group will have one representative to
answer a question flashed on the tv.
• The representatives should run and write
the answer on the board.
• The first one to arrive and finish answering
will gain a point.
1. It is the phenomenon that
occurs when two waves
meet while traveling along
the same medium.
2. It occurs when two waves
with the same frequency
while traveling in the same
direction collide and
produce a wave with a
larger amplitude.
3. It occurs when two waves
overlap at a crest and
trough.
4. Wave interference is
used in various fields. These
devices use destructive
interference to cancel out
unwanted ambient noise.
5. Wave interference is used
in various fields. Wave
interference can cause
problems and provide
solutions. It can either can
cause loss of information or
to boost signal strength.
How would you design an
experiment to demonstrate the
principles of wave interference
using a simple setup?
What are the potential
applications of wave
interference in fields like
materials science,
geophysics, or astronomy?
