In this video from the AT&T Archives Dr. J.N. Shive of Bell Labs demonstrates and discusses the following aspects of wave behavior:
- Reflection of waves from free and clamped ends
- Superposition
- Standing waves and resonance
- Energy loss by impedance mismatching
- Reduction of energy loss by quarter-wave and tapered-section transformers 1
