Ripples on a pond

www.iris.edu/hq... A stone causes ripples to radiate out across the surface of a pond in all directions. Such imagery is the analog or familiar situation for a classic seismology instructional analogy "Seismic waves radiate outward from an earthquake's epicenter like ripples on water." Video Credit: Larry Braile, Purdue University
For a full discussion of this analogy see www.iris.edu/hq...

Well, the video delivers on what it promises

This video was helpful. I used it for a Nearpod lesson which actually asked a question relating to ripples in a pond. Thank you!

[@rams510.]

whos here because of science lol

[@Chrnan6710]

I'm investigating the Huygens Principle, which isn't true in two dimensions, as evident here.

nice video for visualization of speed of group velocity and phase velocity of water ripples

[@jeremypadvorac4516]

exactly what brought me here! I wanted a visualization, and this was perfect

Childhood memories.

I suppose this is the model for the expansion of the universe from a singular explosion, except unlike ripples in a pond the universe is expanding at an increasing rate rather than dissipating. Curious.

[@manihazahid4713]

Interesting point.

[@CarlosMen2008]

This is exactly why I decided to search for this video

[@prateeksharma6756]

I just came here to understand wave motion because i can't be bothered to do it myself...

i giggled a bit 😂

APOD 2016-12-18 (»The Cartwheel Galaxy from Hubble«) sent me here. Cheers!

[@dipi71]

…and after almost two years, NASA’s Astronomy Picture of the Day 2018-10-02 _(»Supernumerary Rainbows over New Jersey«)_ sent me here again. They really like your video. ;-)

Remember skipping rocks?

If part of Cumbre Vieja collapses into the Atlantic Ocean, then the resulting tsunami that will strike the U.S. Atlantic Coast and possibly the Gulf Coast will make the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami look like these pond ripples!

[@manihazahid4713]

I searched for this

[@jodyturben6944]

My life

[@jadebrewin4998]

Well that was boring staring at water for 10 seconds

[@madamegazelle12]
