A wave form which occurs in a limited, fixed medium in such a way that the reflected wave coincides with the produced wave. A common example is the vibration of the strings on a musical stringed instrument.
Animation of a standing wave (red) created by the superposition of a left traveling (blue) and right traveling (green) wave
A wave form which occurs in a limited, fixed medium in such a way that the reflected wave coincides with the produced wave. A common example is the vibration of the strings on a musical stringed instrument.
A standing wave on a circular membrane, an example of standing waves in two dimensions. This is the fundamental mode.
A wave form which occurs in a limited, fixed medium in such a way that the reflected wave coincides with the produced wave. A common example is the vibration of the strings on a musical stringed instrument.
A higher harmonic standing wave on a disk with two nodal lines crossing at the center.
