Summary
DescriptionTwo-frequency beats of a non-dispersive transverse wave (animated).gif
Two-frequency beats of a non-dispersive transverse wave. Inspired by the deep water animation Wave_group by Kraaiennest. The red dot moves with the phase velocity, and the green dots propagate with the group velocity. Since the wave is non-dispersive, phase and group velocities are equal.
