Standing Wave Maker Interactive
The Standing Wave Maker Interactive allows learners to investigate the formation of standing waves, the vibrational patterns associated with the various harmonics, and the difference between transverse and longitudinal standing waves.
Users are encouraged to open the Interactive and explore. For those who would prefer a more guided experience, The Physics Classroom has prepared a classroom-ready student exercise on the topic of standing waves and their frequencies. View
Student Exercise.
Our Standing Wave Maker simulation is now available with a Concept Checker. Do the simulation. Then follow it up with the
Concept Checker.
Learners and Instructors may also be interested in viewing the accompanying
Notes page. Technical information, teaching suggestions, and related resources that complement this Interactive are provided on the Notes page. View
