Solved: Can a standing wave be produced on a string by

Solution 19DQ

Step 1:

Introduction:

A standing wave or stationary wave is a wave which has a constant amplitude at each point on its axis. The sections with amplitude is known as nodes and the sections with zero amplitude are called anti-nodes.By definition, the standing waves have zero velocity

Generally, stationary waves are produced when two waves of the same amplitude, frequency, and wavelength but moving in opposite directions are present in a common space. For example, when a string tied to a wall is disturbed, a wave will move towards the wall and after hitting the wall it reflects back to generate a standing wave.
