Oscillations and waves
Oscillations are called processes in which the movements or states of a system are regularly repeated in time. The oscillation period T is the period of time through which the state of the system takes the same values: u (t + T) = u (t). A wave is a disturbance (a change in the state of the medium) that propagates in space and carries energy without transferring matter. The most common are elastic waves, waves on the surface of a liquid, and electromagnetic waves. Elastic waves can only be excited in a medium (gas, liquid, solid), and electromagnetic waves propagate in a vacuum.
Harmonic phase
The angle of rotation of the point around the circle with uniform rotation is proportional to time. Accordingly, the phase of harmonic oscillation is the angle corresponding to time.
