New cards
  • define stationary wave


  • a wave produced by two progressive waves

    • superposed

    • travelling in opposite directions

    • with the same frequency, wavelength, and amplitude

    • producing nides and antinodes


2
New cards
  • define node

  • define antinode


  • point of zero displacement on a stationary wave

  • point of maximum displacement on a stationary wave


3
New cards
  • state how to find the wavelength of a stationary wave


  • distance between adjacent (anti)nodes =

  • ½λ of the progressive waves =

  • ½λ of the stationary wave
