waveforms

Waveforms are visual representations of how a signal, such as sound or electricity, changes over time. They display the variations in amplitude (strength) and frequency (how often the changes occur) of the signal, helping us understand its shape and behavior. Think of a waveform like a wavy line on a graph that shows how the energy fluctuates, allowing us to analyze and interpret the signal’s characteristics. Whether in audio, radio, or electronic systems, waveforms are essential for diagnosing, designing, and understanding how signals function.
