How are waves created?
Waves are created by a wiggle or vibration in time or space which may cause the surrounding medium to vibrate, creating waves. Waves are just a transfer of energy. Waves are up and down motion with direction (defined as a wiggle in time and space), vibration is just up and down motion. A medium is a substance by which another substance is carried or transferred. Light and sound are good examples of waves. Light comes from the sun and travels at the speed of light. Light is special because it doesn't need a medium to transfer through. Sound, like radio waves, travel through air (the medium) in longitudinal waves.
Wave Theory
The wave theory states that all the particles exhibit both wave as well as particle nature. It is the defining force behind all types of waves, including sound. The nature of sound waves are the very basis for life and civilization on Earth. Without wave theory, life could not exist.
