Welcome to this blog, peace be with You. This blog contains mathematics and physics matters. As the addition service to our tuition programs, we hope this blog can support the matter given in the class and enrich them. Many subject will be uploaded time by time as our progressive effort, and you can download it for free. Some sample problems may be useful for public as their exercises. Thanks for the support, hope this blog can be useful.God Bless You….

Standing Wave Simulation

Standing wave or stationary wave is developed when two waves with equal amplitude, frequency and wavelength but move in the opposite direction meet each other. This flash demonstrates the phenomenon of standing wave development.

Simply change the properties of the blue (moves to the left) and the red waves (moves to the left) to observe what will happen when they meet each other. You will obtain that when the amplitude, frequency and wavelength are not equal, the wave not stationary anymore, it will move.

The properties of frequency, amplitude and wavelength only represent the properties of the waves and they are not accurate measures.
