- **Types of Waves**:
- Mechanical Waves: Require a medium (sound waves).
- Electromagnetic Waves: Do not require a medium (light waves).
- **Wave Parameters**:
- Wavelength (λ), Frequency (f), Speed (v).
- v = fλ (Wave equation).
- **Interference and Diffraction**:
- Interference: Superposition of waves.
- Diffraction: Bending of waves around obstacles.
