In my physics notes it mentioned a wave can have following 4 properties;
1.)Reflection
2.)Refraction
3.)Diffraction
4.)Interference

Further it said by using slinky and ripple tank we can observe those properties.
In the book it nicely describes all those properties with a ripple tank. but it only describes 2 properties( reflection and refraction) through a slinky.

*So my question is can we investigate other 2 properties(diffraction and interference) or not through a slinky?

Many thanks :)
