Do you have a source that explains what diffraction and interference patterns are though? Because that source explains what diffraction and interference is, but I already know that. But what I need to know is what diffraction and interference patterns are, not what diffraction and interference is.

I've recently come across this problem: Answer true or false. If light shines through 2 slits, will the diffraction pattern always be within the interference pattern. I don't understand this question, however. How can the interference and diffraction pattern be separated in this situation...

I like the non-Newtonian fluid wave generation problem, I'll start working on it. I have a question about it though: sea waves never occur in non-Newtonain fluids, so the research won't be relevant to the real world. Would that affect the quality of the project? And as for finding a professor...

Thank you, I'll consider those suggestions. A question though. I've done a little looking into research about rogue waves, and I see that research has already been done on them. This one for instance: http://sandlab.mit.edu/Papers/17_SA1.pdf. How am I going to differentiate my project from...

I am a high school student interested in fluid dynamics, especially the Physics of ocean waves. So I'm hoping to do a science fair project about the Physics of sea waves, maybe for local science fair, or if it's really good, ISEF. The trouble is, I don't know what to do, especially because the...
