This chapter delves into the fundamental nature of waves, exploring how oscillating or vibrating motions generate waves. It explains that a point or body moving back and forth along a line around a fixed central point is responsible for creating diverse wave phenomena. By examining the principles of wave motion, readers will gain insight into the essential characteristics of waves, their behaviors, and the underlying physics that govern them. This foundational knowledge will serve as a stepping stone for further studies in wave dynamics.
