Beat Patterns
The Beats Interactive allows learners to investigate the formation of beats from two sources with slightly different frequencies. The beat patterns are displayed and the individual waves creating the patterns can be viewed. The Interactive clearly illustrates beats as an interference phenomenon that occurs between waves of slightly different frequencies.
Users are encouraged to open the Interactive and begin. There is no need for an activity sheet for this Interactive.
