Classical Mechanics
motion of a properly bowled bowling ball consists of a combination of trans-lational and rotational motion, whereas wave propagation is a combination of translational and oscillatory motion. Furthermore, the above mentioned types of motion are not entirely distinct: e.g., circular motion contains elements of both rotational and oscillatory motion.

Thermodynamics & Statistical Mechanics
farside.ph.utexas.edumolecules are completely negligible. This means that the forces between atoms and molecules are predominantly electromagnetic in origin, and are, therefore, very well understood. So, in principle, we could write down the exact laws of motion for a thermodynamical system, including all of the inter-atomic forces.

Transverse waves on a string - Harvard University

This equation will take exactly the same form as the wave equation we derived for the spring/mass system in Section 2.4, with the only difierence being the change of a few letters. In Section 4.2 we discuss the re°ection and transmission of a wave from a boundary.
