student into six group)
1. Get a rope of any kind and tie one end of it to a fixed sturdy object near you.
Now, straighten the rope and hold the other end of it. Start moving your hands
up and down. Observe what happens to the rope. Were you able to make a
wave? Draw the wave you made on a separate sheet of paper.
2. Now, try to make a wave again but move your hands slowly. Observe what
happens. Draw the image of the wave you created.
