In physics, a "wake" refers to the disturbed flow of fluid that is left behind an object as it moves through that fluid. This concept is most commonly discussed in the context of fluid dynamics, where the object can be anything from a boat moving through water to an airplane flying through air. When an object moves through a fluid, it displaces the fluid and creates a region of altered flow behind it.
