In this video I explain some more wave properties, including: reflection, refraction, diffraction and polarisation for A Level Physics.
Both transverse and longitudinal waves share similar properties that you must be familiar with, such as reflection, refraction and diffraction, to understand further topics like lenses and interference. However only transverse waves can be polarised.
The App running is called Ripple Free by Paul Falstad: http://www.falstad.com/apps/RippleTankFree/ Have a go with it to investigate these effects, and many others, yourself.
Thanks for watching,
