Concentric Circles

edit

Concentric circles travels in a direction when there is a cobble drops on the water surface

 
 

Which can be expressed as

 
 


High Low Wave

edit

Water wave moves in a direction that changes its amplitude sinusoidally

 
 

With

  : Wavelength . The distance between 2 crests (highest point)
  : Frequency . frequency of time to complete a cycle
