Can someone help me draw a standing wave? please? anyone good with frequencies and waves?

OpenStudy (theeric):

A standing wave is just a wave that doesn't move. The maximums of the waves occur at the same spot. So do the minimums, and the nodes!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok could you help me out if I gave you some more information? I have to do it based on experiment results

OpenStudy (theeric):

Maybe! Let's see what I can do. The dimensions of the wave are important. I saw you had a sound question earlier, so I would think the amplitude of the wave is compression and the length of it is position. I've never done a lab with sound before, though.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok just one second let me get it all on here

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sally has to create a drawing of the standing wave when you have two, three, and four nodes or peaks.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh nvm I think I got it :)

You know what you're doing now, @QueenBee232 ?
