Experiment Sa-09
Standing Waves
Description: A
long string is fixed at one end, and on the other end, a motor is attached.
The motor makes the string move so that it creates a wave, and the rotations per
minute(RPM) of the motor can change so that the wavelength changes. The
waves created are standing waves.
In
the foreground is the motor, and the string visibly extends to the other side
of the room, where it is fixed.
Here
the wave is visible.
