In the experiment we use microwaves to study wave phenomena. Microwaves - as well as light - are electromagnetic waves of wavelength about 1 mm - 30 cm (correspondingly, the frequency of microwaves is  $ 10^{9} - 3 \cdot 10^{11}\ \text{Hz} $).

Aim of the experiment

  • To deepen the knowledge related to wave phenomena,
  • To verify the relationships in wave physics experimentally,
  • To model phenomena and devices in wave optics.

For the purpose:

  • We summarize the basic knowledge on wave phenomena,
  • We examine reflection, refraction, interference and diffraction of microwaves,
  • We assemble some experimental setups (which are also useful in optics) based on interference of waves, and measure the wavelength of the used microwave.

In a transversal wave the vector related to the changing quantity is in the plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation but within this plane its direction is arbitrary.
