Description: A plane wave stikes a parabolic shaped barrier and reflects. This video was produced at 15 frames per second.
Larger Video Frame w/ More Waves Questions: 1. Describe the chages that take place to the wave as different parts of the wave begin to reflect at different times. 2. Does the wave appear to follow the rules of reflection as seen in the previos section? 3. Is there a point where all of the reflected parts of the original wave meet? Describe the location of this point. 4. Describe the appearance of the reflected wave as it leaves reemerges from the reflector? (Has it changed?) On to Part Four
