Animation of a pulse waveform. This waveform is commonly used in electronics and is also commonly used in teaching of Fourier integrals and transforms.
This animation shows the time dependence of the complex phasor representation of a one dimensional traveling wave. The wave is seen as a rotating helix.
This animation emphasizes that most waves are a moving disturbance pattern, that the pattern moves but not the material through which the waves moves. This is an important concept in the physics of waves.
This animation demonstrates the addition in time of two sinusoid signals added together by means of phasors. To make the concept connected to real objects, two bungy jumpers are used to connect the phasors with real ...
This animation shows the setup one might use to measure the spectrum of modes for the waves on a string experiment. The animation shows how the exciting frequency is swept through the modes and the response detected.
This animation demonstrates the addition of two phasors rotating at different rates to produce a beating sinusoidal signal. To connect the process to real life, two bungy jumpers to provide the oscillating waveforms.
This animation shows the time dependent behavior of a phasor representing an oscillating object. It also displays an x-y graph (time is the x variable) of the oscillation and a bar graph of the oscillating variable. All ...
Animation of the complex phasor representation of a traveling wave. This animation shows the time dependence of the complex phasor at various points along a one dimensional wave.
This animation is meant to emphasize the rotating nature of the complex exponential function. This function serves as the basis of complex representation of oscillations and waves in physics and electrical engineering.
