Ocean waves are just one example of waves that can be used to study the properties of waves. Other examples include the ringing of a bell and the impact of an earthquake. Can you think of other examples?

Light, sound, and waves in the ocean are common examples of waves. Sound and water waves are mechanical waves; meaning, they require a medium to travel through. The medium may be a solid, a liquid, or a gas, and the speed of the wave depends on the material properties of the medium through which it is traveling.
