The industrial production of energy as well as possible sources of renewable energy are also described here; "Waves, Sound, and Light" - is concerned with the wave motion of light and sound energy. The principles of superposition, interference, diffraction, polarization, and reflection are covered in this section.There is also a survey of lenses and optical instruments; and "Electricity" - details the basic concepts of electrical energy and magnetism. Subjects covered in this section include induction, electrostatics, electric current, electromotive force, electrolysis, transformers, and electric motors.
