Standing Waves Introduction (11:32)
Reflection with and without inversion caused by fixed and free ends are demonstrated. Standing wave patterns at 5 different frequencies are demonstrated. A standing wave animation is shown to understand to how standing wave patterns are created. Nodes and antinodes are defined and demonstrated.
